More About the Author

As a mortgage professional with over 25 years experience, I spent years training hundreds of loan originators and mortgage brokers. During that time I became increasingly frustrated with the lack of educational requirements on mortgage professionals and began campaigning for increased educational prerequisites of loan originators and more regulation for proper upfront disclosure of rates and fees so that borrowers would not be faced with any unexpected changes at closing.

Recognizing the lack of training material I began my five year project that lead to my first book; 'The Mortgage Originator Success Kit' published 2005 by McGraw Hill. I am very proud that some excerpts have been used from my book by some state licensing systems and more recently by the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System.

The success of my first book 'The Mortgage Originator Success Kit' led to the publishing of my second book; 'The Millionaire Mortgage Broker', also published by McGraw Hill.

Newly invigorated by the critical and welcomed changes our industry has endeavored, I accepted a position as president of CasaBanc Mortgage Corporation. At CasaBanc Mortgage I developed a stringent in-house FHA, VA, and other specialty loan programs training course. After completion I personally handpick each and every loan officer to ensure our loan applicants are receiving expert mortgage advice. In addition, I brought together the best and most experienced processors and underwriters and created a unique 'Express to Close' system, guaranteeing the lowest rates and fees available with exceptional closing times.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Only Book to Own to Help Get You Started in The Loan Business, March 24, 2006

This review is from: Mortgage Originator Success Kit (Hardcover)

I have searched high and low for answers to important questions regarding the loan industry and found little or no information in the mainstream, until I found, "The Mortgage Originator Success Kit" by Darrin Seppinni. If you have any interest in becoming a loan officer or broker... this book is the only place to start.

I have been in the real estate industry for several years and have closed over fifty million in sales in the past two and half years. I decided to make the switch to loan broker this year and having this book and Mr. Seppinni's personal help have made the transition trouble free and an enjoyable process that could have otherwise been a nightmare. I highly recommend this book!

Thank you so much for everything!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great origintor book, March 20, 2006

This review is from: Mortgage Originator Success Kit (Hardcover)

I've been a loan officer over 5 yrs now and bought this book for my new asst.Before I gave it her, I thought I would look it over, and was surpised to find a lot of information that even I was not aware of.I began my career without ant formal education and just learned on the way like most other l.o's. Everyone is always to busy to take the time to teach you anything and without a clear understanding of the mortgage business you're certain to make a lot of mistakes. This book really explains the entire mtg process in a clear way, and makes learning the business a whole lot easier.I only wish the book had been available early on in my career.I've decided to keep this book for my self and just order another book for my asst. Great Job

5.0 out of 5 stars This book makes all the others obsolete!, January 3, 2006

This review is from: Mortgage Originator Success Kit (Hardcover)

It's not often that I receive a book that truely exceeds my expectations but this one has. It was delivered three days ago and it was exactly what I was looking for but had not been on the market until now. I am a brand new loan officer and have been looking for a book that has all of the information I needed to establish a solid foundation of knowledge for my new career. I had already purchased four other books on mortgage origination, two of which were three times the price of this one. None had the information and quality of this one. This book is a hard cover (not that it matters but it is a nice touch) and is set up like a good text book, at a price of less than $30. I don't know how the price can be that low. The other books seemed like they had been put together in the author's basement. Anyway, this is the first review I have ever given for a book or item on Amazon but it is exactly what is needed for mortgage loan officers, especially those of us new to the field!
