Mortgage Education Enhancements

We extended our education offerings to include state required pre-license and continuing education courses. The subprime mortgage crisis and new fair lending laws began moving the residential mortgage industry to require a more educated mortgage professional.

SAFE Mortgage Licensing Act

The Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act (SAFE Act) was signed into law.
