Loan Officer - Remote Sales Professional
Warm Leads | Base Pay + Uncapped Commission | Paid Training
Are you competitive, driven, and looking for a remote sales opportunity you can turn into a rewarding, lasting career?
No mortgage experience? No problem. We value drive, resilience, and a hunger to learn. Your potential isn't limited by your background – it's powered by your ambition. We provide the training, tools, warm leads and support to help you succeed in this fully remote sales role.
Our thriving remote culture isn't just a perk – it's a reflection of how we see the future of work. We want to empower incredible people to do great work wherever they are, while enabling flexibility.
You’ll play a vital role in helping clients achieve the dream of homeownership by fulfilling our vision of changing the way mortgages are done – by making homeownership more affordable, accessible, and achievable.
Are You the One?
No Mortgage Experience? No Problem – But Talent and Grit are Essential
We don’t hire experienced Loan Officers. Seriously, we want to save you time – this role is designed exclusively for candidates without prior LO experience, so if you have ever spent any amount of time working as a Loan Officer, you should not apply.
We do hire smart, driven people ready to prove they belong in a high-performance sales environment. This role comes with a fast-paced, in-depth learning curve, and we’re looking for fast climbers who can keep up.
Real Sales Experience is Required – Where Influence and Ownership Mattered
We’re looking for candidates with real, meaningful sales experience – what we refer to as “hard sales.” That means you’ve recently (within the last 5 years) excelled in a role where:
- You influenced buying decisions from start to finish in complex sales processes – not roles centered on order-taking or passive upselling
- You had ownership of your outcomes, often tied to goals, metrics, or earnings/commissions
- You handled objections, followed up with leads, solved for difficult problems, and earned the sale
- You were responsible for building trust, tailoring a solution, and closing the deal
Whether your experience was in-person or over the phone, B2B or B2C, what matters most is that you’ve done the kind of selling that builds real skill, and translates well to our environment.
Here’s what makes a great fit:
- Seeking to establish and maintain a career as a salesperson for the long term
- Thrive working remotely and at staying self-motivated
- Have succeeded in fast-paced and performance-based role(s)
- Bring a strong competitive drive and hunger to earn
- Patience and commitment to learning a very complicated sales process
- Able to handle high pressure situations, acknowledging that some things are out of your control that may impact earnings
- College degrees are not required, but the ability to learn quickly is essential
This isn’t the role for you if:
- Perform best with frequent oversight and guidance to stay on track
- Prefer routine tasks over rapid change
- Are not a high-level problem solver who is comfortable with the frequent and ongoing challenges that arise for your clients
- Are seeking a sales role as a stepping stone to a non-sales role
- Are not comfortable and confident talking to customers on the phone
- Your primary interest is working in the mortgage industry rather than becoming a top-performing salesperson
- Are unwilling or incapable of handling time-sensitive client needs outside of normal business hours
- Are more interested in short-term earning results than in actually learning the intricacies and nuances that lead to success/higher earnings in this complicated business.
Your Journey at Neighbors Bank
Want a sales career that pays you for what you're worth? This base + commission role puts top sales people at $70K+ in year one with many reaching $100K-$120K by year three. This is a challenging role that typically takes a long time to master. Because of the nature of the role, quick results driving a high income in the first year is unlikely. Our most successful salespeople are problem-solvers and learners that continually evolve over time, allowing them to increase their earning potential.
After your first full year, your guaranteed base compensation will be reduced, allowing for increased upside opportunity for bonus incentives that are based specifically on your production. Loan Officers who produce at or around this role's minimum requirements rarely last longer than 1 year in the role as is, so this minimum guarantee should not be a factor for ideal candidates in this role.
We don’t cap your ambition – we reward it, but it takes a strong commitment.
We offer a comprehensive, paid training program designed to help you build expertise in the mortgage industry and a foundation in reaching your income goals. Starting off, you’ll focus on learning the loan origination process, gaining hands-on experience, and sharpening your existing sales skills. This initial phase of training comes with compensation of $20 per hour, plus performance-based bonuses.
After successfully completing Stage 1 of training (approximately 19 weeks after starting), your compensation increases to the following as you enter Stage 2 of training:
- $60,000 annual base
- Uncapped bonuses
- $5,000 one-time promotion bonus
Your Role as a Loan Officer
Loan Officers play a key role in guiding our clients' success through the home loan process. These are clients that already reached out to Neighbors Bank to take the next step, so we work with hot/warm leads – there is no cold calling required.

Our People and Culture are our greatest strengths. That’s why finding incredible people who are a great culture fit is so important. We’re seeking individuals who:
- Are passionate about their job and have fun doing it.
- Will deliver results with integrity.
- Enjoy finding ways to enhance the lives of others every day.
