Net branch. Bank Branch. These topics are on the minds of most originators these days due to the internet and technology expanding the reach of the geographic restrictions that originators may have once found limiting. The 50 state lending program is a program designed to be used by licensed mortgage brokers and their employees to accept mortgage loans that have been referred to them from all 50 states. The broker becomes an independent contractor for the bank to help originate and manage a portion of the process and be compensated for that management according to RESPA regulations. This enables a small or medium size shop to become a powerful lending presence on the financial security of a national bank. Originators that can focus their efforts on getting loans in and less on investors and state restrictions will be able to spend more time originating loans and making money. Origination: The broker will originate the mortgage loan using the process and procedures provided through the 50 State Lending website. Upon approval NLC will email the new approved broker; logins to a permission based website with all the tools and procedures to help them originate the loan. Once the AUS required documentation has been accumulated by the bank's processing department, the information will be verified and forwarded to the investor for underwriting. If additional information is required by either the bank's processing department or by the investor's underwriting department, the broker will be notified and will be responsible for providing the required information. Once the loan has been approved the broker will be notified of prior to closing conditions that must be satisfied and asked to schedule a closing with his/her borrower. The banks processing department will work with the investor, the broker and the title company to ensure that all prior to closing conditions have been satisfied, the closing has been scheduled and that closing documents are prepared. Compensation: The broker will be compensated on Friday of each week for loans funded/purchased by Wednesday of the same week. Compensation will be 1099 and paid to the broker/mortgage company and sent by mail. Per the bank regulators, the maximum combined total discount points and yield spread premium that can be charged by a broker is 3.5%. Requirements: This program is available to licensed mortgage brokers and their companies nationally. Please remember that you and your employees are 'not' employees of the bank. Do not represent yourselves as employees of the bank. You and your employees are contractors for the bank. You are responsible for the actions of your employees and will be held accountable for their actions. Please remember also, that this program is offered by 'invitation only' and can be rescinded at any time. This program is unique to the mortgage industry and represents a valuable opportunity for qualified mortgage brokers giving you unlimited access to all 50 States.
