Commission Sharing
Inexperienced loan officers will be paid 80% of the loan commission on the
first 3 transactions. However, if working with a mentor (or a team leader),
the commission will be raised to 100% (before paying the flat fee, the
processing fee, and the override to the mentor (or a team leader). The
mentee must agree to pay the commission override to the mentor.

Commission Paying
When the mentee has a transaction, the Mentor will be set as the Additional
LO automatically (unless the mentor does not have a license in the property
state) and eligible to earn the commission override. When a mentee requests
a commission for a closed loan, the commission override will be deducted
from the commission and paid to the mentor. Both mentee and mentor will be
paid at the same time.
Example: a mentee agrees to pay the mentor 30% of the loan’s commission. If the commission is $4000 (after the flat admin fee and processing fee), the mentor earns $1200, and the mentee earns $2800.
