Position Overview

As a Licensed Mortgage Loan Officer at Cascade, you will originate purchase-focused manufactured housing loans through an established nationwide network of manufactured home retailers and referred borrowers.

• Drive application-to-submission and submission-to-closing conversion through proactive borrower and retailer follow-up.

• Partner with Production Associates, Processing, Underwriting, Closing, and Funding teams to move loans efficiently through the process.

• Maintain pipeline discipline, accurate system updates, and timely completion of compliance, disclosure, redisclosure, and regulatory requirements.
• Deliver an exceptional borrower and retailer experience through clear communication, urgency, and ownership.

What you will need to join Cascade

• Active NMLS license required.

• Minimum 2+ years of mortgage loan origination experience preferred.

• Experience with purchase transactions, manufactured housing, chattel/home-only, land-home, FHA, VA, GSE, or non-QM products strongly preferred.

• Experience working with referral partners, retailers, dealers, builders, or other third-party referral sources preferred.

• Ability to manage a high-volume pipeline while maintaining strong compliance, disclosure, and customer communication standards.

• Proven track record of consultative sales, borrower follow-up, and converting referred leads into submitted/closed loans.

Training Support

Cascade provides structured onboarding, product training, sales leadership support, compliance resources, and cross-functional partnership with Operations to help experienced Loan Officers ramp quickly and succeed in our manufactured housing lending model.

• Comprehensive onboarding program designed to provide a strong foundation in mortgage lending, loan processes, systems, and company policies.

• Dedicated training and mentorship from experienced Sales Leaders.

• Hands-on learning opportunities focused on loan pipeline management, borrower communication, document collection, compliance requirements, and closing processes.
