Motto® Mortgage HQ Recruiting Team Delivers 87% Loan Originator Retention Rate and Sets New Hiring Standard
The Motto HQ Recruiting and Retention team helps franchise owners not only find, but retain the right talent with robust tools, ongoing support, and strategic guidance.
DENVER, July 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Since launching in 2016, Motto® Mortgage, the first and only national mortgage brokerage franchise brand in the U.S., has helped fill a gap in the industry. Its unique business model empowers loan originators to take control of their careers, expands potential revenue streams for real estate brokerages and teams, and offers a simplified path to franchise ownership with its Mortgage Brokerage-in-a-BoxSM solution.
With a network of over 650 high-performing loan originators across the country, Motto Mortgage is redefining what's possible in the mortgage industry. In 2024 alone, loan originators in the Motto network helped more than 8,400 individuals and families achieve the dream of homeownership, closing nearly $2.7 billion in loan volume. These aren't just numbers—they're a testament to a franchise model that works, and the strength, reach, and reliability of the Motto Mortgage brand.
For Motto Mortgage franchise owners, recruiting top loan originator talent is critical—but they don't have to go at it alone. The Motto HQ Recruiting & Retention Team has helped facilitate the hiring of more than 50 mortgage loan originators for Motto offices since the team was formed just over two years ago, delivering not just volume but staying power, with an impressive 87% retention rate among those hires. These results are driven by a comprehensive suite of services designed to support franchise owners every step of the way. The team helps to develop a tailored recruiting strategy and identify pre-qualified LO matches, assists with sourcing and initial screening of candidates, consults on the development of compelling job descriptions and employment agreement templates, and even provides tools that franchise owners can use to help new hires build a business development plan.
"Working with the Motto HQ recruiting team has been a game-changer for my business. They provide structure, consistency, and deep industry insight that have helped me stay focused and strategic in growing my team," said Paul Boone, Broker Owner of Motto Mortgage Signature Plus. "The tools they introduced—like Mobility Market Intelligence (MMI) and RETR—have made my prospecting efforts more targeted and efficient, and the ongoing support and scheduled prep calls have added real value. Motto HQ's recruiting support is a strategic advantage for any Motto franchise owner committed to building and retaining a strong, high-performing team."
For mortgage professionals looking to grow, thrive, and make a lasting impact, there's no better place to be a part of than a large brand network of offices like Motto Mortgage. Motto loan originators are provided comprehensive guidance, ongoing education opportunities, compliance support, a suite of marketing materials, access to shop a variety of wholesale lenders and loan options, and industry-leading technology tools that create a smoother loan and customer experience. Additionally, most Motto offices are affiliated with real estate, and loan originators can benefit from proximity to potential agent partners. Motto HQ handles the heavy lifting so loan originators can focus on what they do best: helping borrowers, closing deals, and growing their pipelines.
