New Jersey Mortgage Licensing
New Jersey removed their Brick'n'mortar (Physical Office) Requirement on 1/4/10. There is a test required to be taken by an officer of the mortgage company. As of 1/4/10, this is now the same test as the test required for Loan Originators (Solicitors) and can be taken by an officer out-of-state now. Here is a copy of the states regulations that they normally make you purchase: Rules and Regulations for Licensed Lender Exam.
