The mortgage industry is hurting due to the high surging mortgage rates, low housing inventory, skyrocketing home prices, and tough competition among mortgage lenders. This thread is geared towards experienced veteran mortgage loan officers and managers. Which mortgage company is best to launch your career as a mortgage loan officer? Mortgage banker, mortgage broker, FDIC bank, credit union, buying a mortgage franchise or independent loan officer. Thank you in advance.

Here’s videos of Chase. Started leash training Chase the one year old German Shepherd puppy. Walked three tines around the pond. Did so so and he tried pulling time to time. Did not yell at him or try to train him. First day so I let him get used to the house and walking path. Will try to walk him daily for a week before I start leash training him. I want to train him to walk off leash, come when he is called, and not run after squirrels or leave the area where he can not be by me. I will post our progress as time pass. Chase still thinks he is a 4 month old German Shepherd puppy and is clueless on everything. Everything is a game to him. Chase is a good natured dog and doesn’t have a mean bone and needs to start learning how to behave and get some manners. I purchased Chase in September and he has two different types of worms 🪱. One type was a intestinal worm that took 4 months to treat and he needed to be separated from our other dogs because the poop was contagious. Now he’s all healed and showtime so time for one on one training. Chase loves toys especially squeaky balls. I want to train him how to fetch and go on car rides. Once Chase is fully trained, I like to get another German shepherd puppy

Let’s talk about a specific subject today!
CREDIT UNIONS/Community Banks
Credit Unions offer products to consumers and businesses!
Why I love Credit Unions and you should too:
Credit Unions offer many more credit BUILDING products than banks. They generally have secured loans and secured credit cards
Credit Unions are all about relationships. They are flexible! When you join as a member you are building a relationship.
Credit Unions often have Easier approval requirements than big banks and look at FICO 9 scores which are close to vantage scoring models (those on Credit Karma)
Credit Unions may not come with as many fancy rewards and offers like Chase, American Express, CapitalOne, etc. but they will give you credit cards and high credit lines.
They have a lot of money to lend
They are Great to get consumer credit cards and business credit cards.
Don’t just take my word for it, go apply the knowledge!

Veterans and Credit Diversity: The Importance of a Mixed Credit Portfolio
Welcome to Day 9 of our dedicated series aimed at empowering our nation’s veterans with comprehensive credit knowledge. Today, we venture into the realm of credit mix or credit diversity. As veterans embark on their civilian financial journeys, understanding the value of a diverse credit portfolio becomes a cornerstone of creditworthiness.
Unraveling Credit Diversity: More than Just Cards
A diversified credit portfolio refers to having various types of credit accounts, such as:
-
Revolving Accounts: These are accounts like credit cards where you have a set limit, and you can borrow up to that limit as you wish.
-
Installment Accounts: Loans with fixed payments over a specific period, like mortgages, auto loans, or student loans.
-
Open Accounts: Accounts that require full payment every month, like some utility bills.
Why Does Credit Diversity Matter to Veterans?
Credit mix contributes to 10% of your FICO score. While it might not be the most significant factor, lenders like to see that you can handle different types of credit responsibly. For veterans, especially those who might be building or rebuilding credit post-service, diversifying credit sources can be a strategic move.
Strategies for Building a Diverse Credit Portfolio
-
Start with What You Need: Don’t open credit lines just for the sake of diversity. Start with what’s necessary, like a credit card for daily expenses or an auto loan if you need transportation.
-
Gradually Diversify: Over time, as your financial needs evolve, consider different types of credit. This could mean taking on a retail card, personal loan, or mortgage.
-
Stay Informed: Some veterans benefits or programs offer favorable loan terms. Being informed can help you make credit decisions that not only diversify but also benefit your financial health.
Veterans’ Unique Position: Challenges and Opportunities
-
Relocation and Home Purchases: Many veterans, post-service, consider purchasing homes. A mortgage can be a significant addition to a credit mix. Plus, VA loans offer some unique benefits for eligible veterans.
-
Education and Training: Post-service, veterans might pursue further education or vocational training. Student loans, if managed well, can contribute positively to credit diversity.
-
Starting Ventures: Veterans with entrepreneurial aspirations might consider business loans. This not only diversifies credit but also fuels economic ambitions.
Potential Pitfalls and How to Avoid Them
-
Overextension: While diversifying credit is beneficial, overextending and failing to manage repayments can hurt your credit score.
-
Unnecessary Inquiries: Each time you apply for new credit, a hard inquiry is made, which can lower your score. Be strategic and limit unnecessary applications.
-
Ignoring Account Management: Simply having diverse accounts isn’t enough. Regularly review each one, ensure timely payments, and keep an eye on overall debt.
Closing Thoughts for Day 9: Diversity as a Strength
In the military, strength often stems from unity in diversity – different roles, skills, and backgrounds coming together for a shared purpose. Similarly, in the credit landscape, diversity can be a foundation of strength.
However, just as every role in the military requires diligence and responsibility, every credit account demands meticulous management. The goal isn’t merely to diversify but to manage that diversity adeptly.
As we conclude today’s exploration into credit mix, our mission remains steadfast: to guide our nation’s veterans toward a future where their credit portfolio is not just diverse but also robust and resilient.
Join us tomorrow as we delve deeper, equipping our veterans with the insights and strategies they need to thrive in their financial endeavors.
