About this episode

Fannie Mae West interviews Tressa Pope about effective team building in the mortgage industry and the importance of training loan officer assistants.

What if the secret to taking the next step was actually surrendering control? Fannie Mae West sits down with Tressa Pope, founder of the Loan Officer Playbook, for a conversation about building up your team the right way, so that you have a chance to grow without burning out. Tressa brings over 25 years of mortgage experience and a first-hand understanding of what happens when you have the right LOA in place, and what happens when you don’t. They talk about why most training programs can miss the mark, how to train an LOA who actually understands what you’re asking of them, and the one thing that loan officers need to be doing before they even start the hiring process. If you feel like you’re doing everything yourself and wondering how to take the next step, this episode can show you the guide to building a team that works for you.
