This course is designed to prepare candidates to take the exam to become a state-licensed mortgage loan originator in New Jersey under the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance (DOBI). This 4-hour course covers New Jersey specific rules and regulations, and is required as part of the 20 hours of prelicensure education needed to become a New Jersey mortgage loan originator.
This course consists of five modules and a final exam:
Total study time: 4 credit hours (200 minutes)
In this module we will summarize the organization and purpose of the State of New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance (DOBI).
In this module, we will cover the foundational basics for understanding your role as a mortgage loan originator. We will define the residential mortgage loan, and the important players in the issuance of a residential mortgage loan. Then, we will define the vital role of the mortgage loan originator. Finally, we will address the federal and state laws that regulate your professional activities as a mortgage loan originator.
New Jersey law requires that any person who participates in the following transactions must first obtain an New Jersey Mortgage Loan Originator license:
In this module, we will cover New Jersey mortgage loan originator licensure.
In this module, we will first outline New Jersey law regarding MLO licensure for a person with an existing criminal background. You will see that New Jersey has a strict definition of what types of criminal background will prohibit licensure. Then we will dive deeper into New Jersey law that outlines the expected professional behavior of an MLO, including the prohibited acts as defined by law. This section will conclude with a description of what can happen if an MLO violates the law.
In this module we will address specific requirements surrounding the relationship between the MLO and the residential mortgage loan applicant. We will start with a review of the regulations regarding the MLO and advertising for new clients. Advertising for a mortgage loan is highly regulated by New Jersey law, and it is important to take note of what is required in the advertisement, and what is prohibited.
After addressing advertising, we will then address several other additional funding opportunities that can arise after the initial residential mortgage is funded, which are call secondary mortgages. Then, we will address the options and requirements that can be given to the mortgage loan application in order to insure the mortgage loan. Finally, we will address the fees that the MLO can charge the loan applicant, as defined by New Jersey law.
