Wholesale Mortgage Originator

Job Summary

We are seeking a Senior Wholesale Mortgage Originator for a direct hire opportunity in Aliso Viejo, CA. This role is designed for a proven private money mortgage professional with an active, transferable network of high-producing mortgage brokers, luxury real estate agents, high-net-worth borrowers, and professional referral sources.

This position is a strong fit for an experienced originator who values a collaborative office setting, direct communication, supportive leadership, and the ability to build a consistent pipeline through trusted referral partnerships rather than purchased leads.

• Activate and expand existing referral relationships to source high-value private money and bridge loan opportunities.
• Qualify and structure loans by evaluating collateral, borrower strength, leverage, liquidity, timing, and exit strategy.
• Lead transactions from inquiry through funding by coordinating commitments, underwriting, processing, closing, and client communication.
• Maintain clear, responsive communication with referral partners, borrowers, and internal teams while setting accurate expectations.
• Own pipeline management, including CRM activity, next steps, projected volume, conversion ratios, and production forecasts.
• Follow company policies and applicable private money lending requirements while maintaining strong credit discipline.
