Mortgage Processor

When someone applies for a new home loan or refinance, a mortgage processor puts together a file that contains the application information, supporting documentation and a credit report that they pull and analyze. Then, that file goes to the underwriter, who is responsible for determining whether to approve the application and setting the terms of the mortgage agreement for approved loans.
The mortgage processor’s key responsibilities are to ensure the underwriter has all the information necessary to approve or deny a mortgage application and that loan documents are complete and ready for closing.
A Mortgage Processor should be able to fulfill various duties and responsibilities. The following are some duties and responsibilities a Mortgage Processor should be able to execute:
- Checking loan applications for missing information and potential errors
- Gathering and checking appraisals, income verification and other documents for completeness and accuracy
- Running credit reports and evaluating creditworthiness
- Requesting additional information for the underwriter as needed
- Monitoring the underwriting process and providing updates to the mortgage officer
- Entering borrower and loan information in customer management and mortgage information software
