I have received quite a few emails recently asking me for a recommendation on where to get help with all the changes going on in our industry. Mortgage Currentcy is a great resource for this and I thought I would pass along an email I just received listing 6.5 Reasons Why Mortgage Currentcy Makes You an Expert.
1. Company Meetings: "We talk about the articles and Q & A in our sales meetings. Not all of the articles and interpretations apply to us, but it's great to know what changes have been made and how we can either "use them" or "sell against them" or "compare them" with other loan products."
2. Realtor®/Builder Meetings: "Mtg Talking PointsTMhas made me look like THE expert! I print the flyers and use them in meetings with agents and builders — especially if it fits their niche". View sample Mtg Talking PointsTMflyer, Advertising Rules (RegZ) for Real Estate Agents and Builders.
3. Talk with Underwriters/PMI Reps: "Just because Fannie, Freddie, FHA or VA has a "rule" does not mean that the underwriters/investors or PMI companies will interpret it the same way. I pick up the phone and talk to my reps about the "rule as written" and ask what their rules will be."

4. Emails to Agents: "If I want to get the word out fast, I just "cut and paste" the content from Mortgage Talking Points™ and email it to my database. My claim to fame is that I get the word out before my competitors even have a chance to read it, because all the work is already done for me."
5. Blogs: "I just blogged about the Mtg Talking PointsTMFlyer, What You Need to Know About Appraisals and Were Really Afraid to Ask, and got a deal from an agent I had never done business with before...he thought I really knew my stuff."
6. Notify the Media: "Every once in a while, I'll get a call from my local TV reporter on something they read on the news wires. This last time, I had just read the article about it in MortgageCurrenty and it felt good to answer his questions right away, instead of always saying "let me get back to you!"
6.5 Becoming a Guest Speaker at State Licensing Courses: "I am a loan officer who has been invited to be a guest speaker for State Licensing Courses for real estate agents. Not only does this keep me up-to-date, but agents also tell me what issues they deal with on a daily basis. And what do I hear most? That loan officers don't keep up with the rules."
