El Camino de Santiago – Yeah That’s Right… It’s a Mortgage Thing

Episode 61

Welcome to another epic episode of The Mortgage Loan Officer Podcast, with your host, Frank Garay. 

In this episode, I interview Blaine Rada with Arch MI. What we talk about is a pilgrimage he took in 2018 called the Camino de Santiago. It’s a 500 mile walk starting from France across pretty much all of Spain. You’re probably thinking “why would I want to know about this?”.  Trust me, there’s something about this story that’s somehow important. I can’t put my finger on it, but it’s really good.  Enjoy!

This is Non Negotiable as a Loan Officer

Episode 60

Welcome to another epic episode of The Mortgage Loan Officer Podcast, with your host, Frank Garay. 

In this episode, I felt I had to say this. There are certain things that are non-negotiable in life and we instinctively know what they are and we do those things. This applies to our mortgage business as well, but many of us simply don’t realize it. Today I talk about what the non-negotiable items are in the mortgage industry as a mortgage originator. Tune it if you’ve got the guts to learn it.  If you do, and you take it to heart, you’ll never have a rollercoaster year again.

Don’t Let a Great Market Ruin Your Business!

Episode 59

Welcome to another epic episode of The Mortgage Loan Officer Podcast, with your host, Frank Garay. 

On this episode, I was burdened to give a warning to all of us in the mortgage industry that a “shift” for the better is coming and, in fact, is already here in many markets that can be very damaging to our business if we’re not smart about it. I know that might sound strange. How can a great market damage my business you might ask? Well, it can, and it has, many of us just went through this. Great markets can cloud our thinking and cause us to lose track of what it means to run a business. The good news is, we can prepare for it. Tune in today to see what I mean.

This 2 Year LO Has Staggering Success

It makes no sense to some LO’s that an originator who got into the business during the 2021 refinance boom would be here in 2023 doing more purchase business than many LO’s that have been in the business for 20+ years. It will make sense however when you tune in and hear Tom Kalagher’s story. Tune in, take notes, and get to it!

You Don’t Understand My Area

Episode 53

“The agents in my area are different.” We hear it all the time, but what we’ve not only found, but

actually proven is that this simply is NOT the case at all.
In this episode, Frank goes into some detail on how we know for a fact that agents aren’t one way in one area and a different way in another, and even better, he shows you how the Daily Success Plan overcomes every “what are you going to do for me” objection. So tune in, take notes and enjoy.

This Is Unfair to Most Loan Officers, But Not Claudia Nogan

Episode 52

The money is always in the follow-up. If you don’t believe it, tune in and see how Claudia Nogan has been converting open house goers into deals that have already been pre-approved by other lenders. 

You may feel that this isn’t fair, but I would say to you that you should have stayed in touch; it’s not that hard. Not only that, but she can then hand that borrower off to her referral partners, who invited her to their open house. 

Claudia and her team are making a big impact in their local market, and we can all learn from it. So, tune in, take notes, and get after it!

You can reach out to Claudia here: cnogan@mlbmortgage.com
