There Are Some Very Nice Mortgage Banking Careers California Can Offer You

By Aimee Schwartz


For any student trying to find a career choice if can be very confusing. There are so many to choose from and for those that need to choose subjects towards the end of their school career some hard decisions need to be made. One career path could be the mortgage banking careers California has. Working in a bank is something many dream of as one is able to advance in this field.

In this line of work one will be dealing with people on a daily basis as they help people to apply for loans in order to buy commercial properties or homes. Some will even help the person applying to sort out which loan would best suit their purpose and will lend a hand in filling out the many different forms. Others still will be the ones to evaluate the application as to determine if that person will be a good lending risk.

The credit determines how well the borrower has managed any debt and is usually done by a credit score. The main purpose is to see if there is any risk on the lenders behalf and it will also help to determine what interest rate will be set as well as the credit limit. This form of scoring is not only done by banks and credit companies but by landlords, insurance companies and mobile phone companies to name only three.

In Australia this scoring method is accepted as the main way of seeing if one is creditworthiness. In Austria this is done as a blacklist and the person's name is then sent to credit bureaus. Consumers are however allowed to withhold permission and have the right to ask for a free copy of all the data that is held by the bureaus at least once a year.

The choice is either commercial, residential or masters program and exams in each of the chosen ones will need to be written and passed. Some other professional organizations such as American Bankers Association or the Bank Administration Institute may have their own programs. It will be important to have knowledge of computers and an asset if one is able to use computer software to evaluate applicants when they wish to apply.

A mortgage originator also falls under the banking careers and they are either a broker or banker but are generally referred to as a lender. They are part of the primary mortgage market which in simple terms negotiates conditions as well as transactions. Brokers, bankers as well as credit unions and all banks fall under this definition.

Many people understandably get confused when they are referred to a loan officer, then to a loan processor and finally to an underwriter. The simplest way to explain this is to say that when one enters a bank to ask for a loan, they will be referred to a Loan Officer. He will be the person that one actually has a conversation with.

It is always in ones best interest if applying for a loan to keep all financial records handy as well as all payslips. A brief summary of why the loan is needed and an approximate amount should also be included for quick analysis. Having all required documents before applying will help the process to proceed quickly and efficiently.
