Full Marketing Department

A consistent marketing campaign is the key to steady business.
The biggest problem Loan Originators encounter is inconsistency in their marketing campaigns. Are you guilty of ignoring your marketing when you're busy and only refocusing once business has slowed? This cycle can cause your income and production to fluctuate, leaving you frustrated. VanDyk's marketing team is constantly working for you behind the scenes, ensuring that your brand and business never falter.

Underwriting

Direct Access to Underwriters
We know delivering excellent service to your realtors and clients requires giving good advice and getting fast and accurate answers. We allow you direct access to our underwriters, and since we are a Fannie/Freddie & Ginnie direct lender, what we say goes. You won't have to second guess yourself.
 
  • We average 19 days app to clear to close company wide.
  • Commitment to 48 hour underwriting turn times.
  • Commitment to close loans by contract date!
  • At VanDyk Mortgage, contract extension is a four-letter word.

Common Sense Underwriting
Underwriting loans is a two step – to speed this process we separate the credit from the collateral (property) underwriting. By having separate underwriters review the property vs the credit, you essentially have two underwriters working on your files at the same time. This results in faster turn times and more accurate decisions.

We maintain a balanced underwriter to workload ratio to assure we are not overworking our underwriters and maintain great turn times, along with availability/access for you with your questions and scenarios.

Leverage

At VanDyk, we want you to focus your energy on the revenue generating tasks. We leverage the small stuff on your plate and move it to someone who specializes in it and can get it done efficiently without taking up your time. We want you to leverage tasks such as marketing, prepping a file for processing, doc chasing, loan status updates, and more. This allows you to focus on what you are good at - building relationships with referral partners and working with borrowers.
​
Every system, model, tool, and department at VanDyk was set-up to serve you so that you can narrow your focus to the activities that make you money.

Team Model

Everyone reaches a ceiling of success that we can't break through without the right leverage to help us maximize our strengths. We have learned that most Loan Originators cannot close more than 8-10 loans per month on their own. Leveraging team members helps to avoid burnout, grow their business, earn more money, and have more free time. At VanDyk Mortgage, we have developed team concepts to help you grow your business in each stage without having the burden of a large financial hit to obtain the leverage needed to grow your business. Additionally, your Regional Manager will work with you to help recruit and hire the team members to help you reach your goals.

CSA Model

The first step is our CSA (Corporate Sales Assistant) model. The CSA is available to any Loan Originator regardless of production level. The CSA takes over your file once your borrower is under contract. They take the file from Contract to Processing Submission. They will call your borrower and obtain all the documentation needed for the file, update the 1003 to reflect the actual income and assets based on documentation, walk the borrower through initial disclosures and submit the file to processing. Each file will save you hours in time that is better used for lead generation in your business.

Transaction Coordinator

Once you have leveraged the help of a CSA, you should be able to build momentum and grow your business enough to make your first full-time hire of a Transaction Coordinator. This role is someone who can manage your pipeline from contract to close. They do the same duties the CSA was previously doing, as well as continuing to work with your processor through the file’s closing.

Team Loan Originator

The goal is to grow your business to a level that now you can hire your first team Loan Originator. The additional Loan Originator on your team allows you to continue to do “rain making” activities, and have a Loan Officer who can help you build your business.

Coaching

In most of us, regardless of industry or occupation, there is an entrepreneurial spirit that helps us achieve success. We reach that level of success because of our natural make up. It's who we are. What happens once you reach that level of success? How do you break through that ceiling and move forward on to your next achievement?
At VanDyk Mortgage, we believe coaching is one of the tools that helps us uncover what new systems or models we need to develop to break through ceilings of achievement and attain the next one. We feel that providing coaching to our sales team is a worthy investment. Our Sales Managers are non-producing leaders. Their time isn’t split between working on their own pipeline and helping you achieve your goals. They are focused 100% on helping all our associates achieve their business and life objectives.
Our National Sales Manager, Bryan Lovell, is a John C. Maxwell Certified Coach and trainer. He uses his knowledge, training, and experience to equip and elevate our leaders to help you achieve your goals and dreams. Our trainers will mentor you and help you build your business plan to achieve your desired level of success. They will help you uncover opportunities in your business and coach you to your potential.
One of their objectives is to help you identify the activities that - when they become a habit - increase the possibilities of reaching your goals. They are available to help you self-discover the answers to your questions but can also provide direction when necessary. And most of all, they are there to help motivate you to reach the success you desire. Don’t you want to work for a company that wants to invest in your success?

Processing

Let’s face it, your support team is where the rubber meets the road. Closing loans quickly without a lot of bumps is what creates repeat business from agents. Our team consists of:

• Experienced Processor(s)
• Transaction Coordinator(s)
• Loan Originator Assistants
• Regional Manager

Our Clients and real estate agents want and expect loans to be processed and closed quickly. The processing is the heart of this service. Learn more about these tools that deliver STELLAR service by your team to your agents.

Seamless/Paperless Processing - VanDyk has invested in our technology to result in faster processing, underwriting and closings. We are all on one system, from A to Z. We offer you corporate or local processing (use your processor or ours) – whichever makes better sense to you.
Day One Processing – This FannieMae program allows you to obtain Verification of Income and Cash Assets in minutes! 
Same Day CTC (clear to close) Closings - When you have a clear to close from underwriting, we can close your loan the same day. At times this is crucial to meeting anticipated close dates, and keeps both your customers and agents happy.

Perfect Loan Process

We believe in helping our Loan Originators build successful businesses. We accomplish this by providing you the best tools in the business. The Perfect Loan Process (PLP) is one of those tools. Our PLP provides a roadmap for you and your team to follow to get positive, consistent results. It is tied to our loan origination and customer relationship management software automating a lot of the process for you. You also have a team that will implement parts of the process for you, leaving you to reap the benefits. By touching your transaction partners consistently throughout the loan process, you keep the lines of communication open, work more efficiently and have more on-time 30 day closings. The goal is to have every customer leave the experience with the feeling that you and your team have exceeded their expectations, which leads them to tell their friends and family about your superb service.
