Are rising rates a bad time to start a career as an MLO?
I will be retaking the SAFE MLO exam within the next 2 weeks.
However, are rising rates a pause for concern given the available housing inventory and inflationary environment?
Stated differently, as a new and inexperienced MLO, will transactional volume be a major hurdle?

I was on my third buy when rates were hovering 18-19%
Never looked back ....
