New Jersey Mortgage Licensing
New Jersey has some difficult mortgage licensing requirements for a physical office. See the: Licensed Lender Office Requirement. They require either a home office with a separate entrance or they require a commercial location with a sign, separate entrance, and full time employee. There is also a test required to be taken by an officer of the mortgage company. The problem for many people is that the New Jersey mortgage licensing test is only offered to be taken in New Jersey, and their is not very many good preparation courses for this test outside of New Jersey. Here is a copy of the states regulations that they normally make you purchase: Rules and Regulations for Licensed Lender Exam.
