Easy Street Mortgage, Seattle, WA |

Situation
What do you do when you identify pre-qualifications and turn times as the key concerns for the Realtors and borrowers you do business with?
Find a lender who delivers on both of those promises and build your business around it.
A ten-year veteran of the mortgage industry, Eric Johnson actually began his relationship with MILA as an associate working as an internal sales manager in 2004. After a year, Mr. Johnson saw how unique MILA’s products and technology were in the market and how enthusiastic Realtors and brokers were who took advantage of MILA’s strengths of instant loan commitments and record turn-times. Seeing the potential, Johnson decided to preach the gospel of MILA on his own time.
Action
After leaving MILA, he started working a few hours a day at Alki Mortgage, where Johnson was soon netting a six figure income in less than a year simply by marketing MILA’s loan commitments at Alki to a pool of Realtors. With MILA as his lender, he soon earned a reputation as a loan officer who could close the deal. He became so popular that Realtors would drive to his office with their borrower in the car to get his coveted commitment letter. After a year of building this practice, Johnson decided to jump out on his own as a branch manager of Abacus Mortgage and now associate of Easy Street Mortgage.
Result
Less than a year after starting his own branch, Johnson’s income doubled, and he moves all of his loans through MILA. He lives near the beach and spends his days balancing play and work and spending quality time with his 6 ½ year-old daughter.
“My buddy who makes six figures at Microsoft is quitting his job to work with me. He sees how MILA can turn a few productive hours a day into a better lifestyle.”
