What is Mortgage Loan Origination?

The Mortgage Loan Origination process involves coordination between customers (borrowers), mortgage loan officers and mortgage loan application processing and support staff to collect and assess mortgage loan applications. The mortgage loan officer communicates with the potential borrower to collect information and determine if their financial health is up to par with the bank's lending standards. If the borrower's credit is in line, the loan officer and loan support staff members work to educate the borrower on their options, collect all required documentation, and package everything together (pay stubs, account statements, credit reports, etc.) to pass off to the underwriting team for final review.
