| 2012 Loan Originator Survey The 2012 Loan Originator Survey provides insight into issues that are impacting mortgage loan officers. Preferred methods of marketing, favorite service providers and appraisal issues were all identified in the report. Mortgage technology and mortgage news were also addressed. The survey additionally looked at originator income, production levels and employer profiles. The survey was conducted online between July 22, 2012, and Sept. 27, 2012, and 175 originators participated in the survey. Mortgage Daily confirmed Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System registration on 148 of participants. Survey results reflect heavy participation by Mortgage Daily subscribers. As a result, a majority of the group was employed by non-bank firms — a sharp contrast to the overall population of originators which is dominated by originators who are employed by financial institutions. |
| 2011 Loan Originator Survey Even in a difficult mortgage market, some loan officers are generating a high volume of mortgage originations. Mortgage Daily, which has been covering home-loan production since 1999, examines in this report the practices and services used by high-producing loan officers. In the 2011 Loan Originator Survey, conducted in July 2011, originators who are truly “the best of the best” were asked more than 50 questions. |
