My company does the following:• Free and simple MLO Licensing (22 hours online or in person and you choose your schedule)• Mortgage team to handle the backend (meaning, no structuring, underwriting or processing loans) • Competitive mortgage rates backed a company with 20+ years in the business• Downline revenue stream on the lending side (similar to EXP model.)• They do not have to change brokeragesIn my mind, there aren't many cons to this.
