Mortgage Business

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Realty Plus

Two years ago a good friend told me to get out of the mortgage business.  I have been doing both mortgages and real estate for a long time.  I believed that it gave me an edge in helping my clients.  I felt that I owed it to THEM.

Well, last week I did get out of the mortgage business.  Maybe I will regret it.  Or maybe my friend was right when he told me, "The day you quit doing mortgages will be the happiest day of your life."

As for today, I can say unequivocally, he was right!

Thanks Steven.  I just haven't loved it for a long time.  I guess if I could have focused on ONE aspect of the business, originating OR processing, maybe I would have been happier.  I don't know.  But I have never been happier, for sure.
