After the subprime market plummeted, it has been hard for me to get loans from mortgage brokers. <\/em><em>What do you think is the best route to re-pump loans back in the pipeline, not necessary the same volume as before, but at least a reliable broker source that keeps funding mortgage loans through me? <\/em><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I don&#8217;t need to tell you that loan originators  are a suspicious breed.  Now, more than ever, we are hesitant about trying new capital sources.<\/p>\n<p>Here are five tips I have for a Wholesale Lending Account Executive:<\/p>\n<p>1- <strong>You MUST have a unique selling proposition<\/strong>.  Price, service, or product niche. Define that USP in your first ten seconds very specifically.<\/p>\n<p>EG:  &#8220;<em>I am Brian Brady with Gateway Bank and I offer the perfect 100% loan solution for teachers, police officers, or firefighters.  You&#8217;ve heard about the collapse of 100% loans but this loan program has been around for 9 years and I know exactly how to get these loans approved with my bank<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t worry about limiting yourself.  Start with the niche and let the conversation develop.<\/p>\n<p>2- <strong>Don&#8217;t focus your efforts on a few brokers; market to many originators<\/strong>.  If an originator is worth one $200,000 loan a month and you want to fund $10 million a month, you&#8217;ll need 50 good originators considering you.  You should have four times that amount in your &#8220;prospect file&#8221;.  Spread it out over at least twenty accounts.<\/p>\n<p>3- <strong>Write a web log<\/strong>.  You can get a free web log at <a title=\"ar\" href=\"http:\/\/activerain.com\/action\/referrals\/azbrady\">Active Rain Real Estate Network<\/a> (click the link). There are 2000 loan originators registered there.  Point a domain name at the web log and make it catchy (<a title=\"domain\" href=\"http:\/\/order.sbs.yahoo.com\/ds\/DomainSearchResults?d=originatorhelp.com&amp;.p=&amp;m=dom&amp;.src=sbs\">www.placeyourloan.com is available<\/a>). That will cost ten bucks a year.  You can start by posting programs that go out on your e-mail.  Try to accompany the loan program with a story about how you funded the loans.  Instruct your originators to read it.<\/p>\n<p>4- <strong>Visit the originators at least <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloodhoundrealty.com\/BloodhoundBlog\/1204\/ask-the-broker-how-does-a-lender-ae-get-business-from-a-mortgage-broker\/#more-1204\" class=\"more-link\">Read more<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We received an inquiry today : I am a Wholesale Lending Account Executive and work for a bank.
