Are you a Loan Officer?
Unlike most mortgage lenders, Cornerstone is a federally chartered bank: the first of its kind in Texas history and the second in U.S. history. This gives you the stability of a bank-backed mortgage platform and more ways to say yes to your clients. Cornerstone Loan Officers enjoy:
A platform grounded in nearly four decades of mortgage experience, now powered by a federally chartered bank
Quick-and-seamless onboarding, lightning-fast licensing, and targeted training, so you can start producing right away
A peer group of elite producers, with nearly half our loan officers named as Scotsman Guide Top Originators3
Access to nearly 5,000 loan product variations, a 7.3-to-1 staff-to-LO ratio, and the ability to lend in 45+ states
Fully in-house loan servicing division, plus banking and insurance services, with the goal of serving our clients for life
Are you a Team Member?
Cornerstone is more than just a place to work. It’s where we show up every day to live our Mission with a heart for service. We’ve carefully cultivated our work-family by bringing together the right Team Members who share compelling qualities.
