Pros

I've been in the industry for well over 12 years and the POD model has been the best! it avoids the babysitting files and has helped my business grow dramatically. I would have not been able to close over 20 Million in loan volume this year without the POD model. Marketing is great and has helped me build a well established relationship with customers. The technology department though is my favorite because of Docusign and Transfersafe which make the process paperless!

Cons

Great leadership and technology advance - keep it up!

The POD model is basically the best thing since sliced bread. You couldn't be more accurate about how it allows no more baby sitting of files and lets each team get down to business. Sprinkle some great marketing and fast turns times on-top, and you have yourself some happy customers. Thanks for the recommendation! We are enjoying your hard work.

Pros

Work from home. Good hands-on experience for someone with little to no administrative or mortgage industry experience.

Cons

Training and communication on my team was confusing and sub-par. Layoffs are frequent and without warning.
