One of the most appealing aspects of becoming a Top Mortgage Specialist is having the freedom to run your business the way you want. For Mortgage Specialist, all kinds of new possibilities await. Such was the case for Avery, who has fully embraced all the advantages of becoming a Top Mortgage Specialist.
FROM SERVING FOOD TO SERVING MORTGAGES
Avery spent 6 years working in the hospitality industry managing restaurants before making a career pivot to the mortgage business. He worked for a Portfolio, Fortune 500 Bank for about a year before he was recruited to work for a Mortgage Broker.
“It really is an excellent way to get your feet wet in the business,” he said of working as a Loan Officer for a Portfolio Bank. “There are some drawbacks, though. You lose some of the flexibility. You lose some of the support that some of us have when creating streams for new sustainable business relationships.”
In addition, Avery didn’t have access to the some of loan products that many of his counterparts did. He also grew tired of being captive to controlled pricing. Bigger picture, there was another driving force behind Avery’s move to teaming with Consumer Funnels “The Mortgage Class”.
“I couldn’t expand my dreams and my visions as fast as I wanted to. So, after making the transition out from under the Portfolio Fortune 500 Bank, the handcuffs were taken off.” said Avery.
FINDING TRUE PARTNERS
Like many Mortgage Specialist who switch to brokering with resources offered by Consumer Funnels, “The Mortgage Class”, Avery has been pleasantly surprised by the amount of support he has received.
“I didn’t expect there to be as much passion for my success. I kind of thought I was just going to be out there on my own,” he said. “But what I quickly learned is that your Consumer Funnels partners are true partners. They’re there to help you on all types of levels to ensure your success. You just have to open up your ears, your mind and your heart to that assistance. And fortunately, we were able to embrace it and use it to our advantage.”
Avery’s mortgage brokerage is home purchase-centric and generates sustainable business by empowering their Consumer Funnels real estate partners. Being a mortgage specialist gives him a competitive advantage by offering real estate agents the level of speed and efficiency that only exists in the mortgage broker industry.
“And at the end of the day, we like to say we try to create an image in the eyes of their clients that they are the rock star and the driving force behind everything that’s happening.” said Avery.
PUTTING HIS FINGERPRINTS ON THE BUSINESS
As much as making the move to wholesale has helped Avery as an independent mortgage broker himself, it has also been instrumental in building out his business. He now has a huge advantage when it comes to recruiting because he can offer others the same benefits he has reaped since opening his own mortgage brokerage.
“When you become a Mortgage Specialist, it’s not just about your goals anymore. It’s about your team’s goals. People use Consumer Funnels’ “The Mortgage Class” because they believe in your vision and your passion and you have to deliver that every day.”
