I was asked by a friend that works in a small broker shop, how she could originate FHA loans. Could she just get signed on with a correspondent or must her small office get approved?

I have only worked retail for banks and am clueless on answering her question. FHA approval was never a question. LOL, my first thought was change employers, but that is not possible until year end (if at all). She doesn't want to ask the question w/out understanding what she is asking for. (Like audits, etc)

Can someone give me the basics - I think I know where the answer is, but honestly, this is where my eyes glaze over the words.....audits, net worth...yada yada. I told her I knew the place to find it (you guys). How can a small broker get in on the FHA originations without all the hassle and expense? Reader's Digest version readily appreciated.

TIA.......

she can always utilize someone elses liscense however they would charge her a fee per file. I know that our company is FHA approved in 13 states and a couple guys come in here as outside reps that do close loans under our brokers liscense.

call if you want furhter information.

Tell her to read the Mortgagee Approval Handbook http://www.hud.gov/offices/adm/hudclips/handbooks/hsgh/4060.1/index.cfm
