hey y'all,

I'm currently applying to a Mortgage Loan Officer position at a highly rated Brokerage. First round interview was quite scary, as I felt as though my first impression was...rusty in sales tactics. My current position involves folks /coming to me/ with products they're already interested in, whereas this new position will have me cold calling leads based off of social media campaigns.

Any tips from anyone on keeping someone on the phone and leading to a sale on loan services?

Be sure at the end of your interview to ask what does EXCELLENCE look like in the role your applying for ? Do some research. Make notes . Check to see what kind of question they will ask.
Also use Chat gpt. Best of luck to you . Keep me posted

All managers loved that question . Also you might ask why they work there and what do they love about there job.? Best of luck !

Question for folks with second homes: Considering buying a vacation home but would be primarily for family use. We currently have a primary residence with a mortgage balance of ~640K, so my understanding is I could only deduct the mortgage interest on 110K of the second mortgage to stay under the 750K cap. If I were to buy the second home through an LLC, would that allow me to exceed that 750K since the expenses of the second home would be pass through expenses/income?

I'm under contract for a new build in progress that won't be done until much later this year. I fully expect interest rates will be higher than what I originally estimated. I may or may not try to lock in a good rate early, but I'm planning on renting it out and this throws a bit if a wrench in my margins. I can take it financially, but wondering, If I absolutely needed to get out of buying it, what recourse do I have? Or could I go ahead, and refinance later (who knows rates at that time...)?

I'm early in my career, managed to save $30K to invest, and want to get my hands dirty with a rental property without too much risk (e.g. no HML/flipping). It sounds like that's a tall order in the NY/CT area given the prices, not to mention whether I'd be able to get a mortgage on anything below $100K, but I figure I'll give it a shot anyway. Any advice on what you might do in my position? Am I being crazy with this idea?

How might I start to evaluate whether or not it’s worth it to keep my current primary residence and turn it into a rental, instead of selling and using the cash to roll into the next down payment for our next home? Currently in our “starter home” and thinking to upgrade in a few years. Some figures to consider for current house - 299k purchase price, 240k left on mortgage, could prob rent for 2250-2500/month, or sell for 375k. It’s in a desired school district, but in the “city” tax district.
