The Loan Officer's Handbook for Success is the most comprehensive training manual available today for new and seasoned loan officers. Since its first publication in 2004 it has been updated and revised annually to reflect any new and required changes within the mortgage lending industry.This training manual presents not only all the many and important subjects that mortgage loan originators need to know to be successful and close more home loans but also gives you insights into the what, why, and how of mortgage loan origination: like you are actually there. It's like attending your own personal mortgage training seminar. But, with this in-depth training manual, of 524 pages and 28 chapters, you'll learn much more than you would attending a mortgage training seminar of 3-5 days.
This is the newly updated 2024 edition of The Loan Officer's Handbook for Success. I update The Loan Officer's Handbook for Success every year to ensure that you receive this mortgage training manual that reflects what is now required regarding mortgage policies and procedures, regulations and laws, and loan origination documents for originating and processing mortgage loans for the current year. That's always been very important to me. Now why, you may ask, is that important? Well, the mortgage lending business is quite dynamic with home loan origination polices, regulations and laws, and required home loan application documents changing all the time. As a result, there have been so many changes to the home loan origination process, within the past 3 to 8 years, that if a mortgage training manual has been written or copyrighted prior to 2020 then that manual is outdated. I would further add, that if a mortgage training manual has been written or copyrighted during or prior to 2016 then that manual is so outdated that, in my opinion, that mortgage training manual is not worth paying any amount for. So, if you are looking for a current Mortgage Training Manual and Resource for you and/or your Loan Officers - then look no further! Becoming a mortgage loan originator can seem like quite a challenge because of all the currently required loan documents, policies and procedures, types of mortgage loans, and regulations and laws.
