"While this career path is not an easy one it is one that I enjoy. The various program types, challenging files and the ever-changing market intrigue me to learn more each day. The biggest pleasure I get is knowing when I have done my best to complete the process for a Borrower that had dreamt of home ownership now come to fruition."

Underwriter at Clayton Holdings
in Tampa, FL

"Being a Transactional Underwriter means there are periods of time where you are very busy and have a large opportunity for overtime and extra income. Conversely, there are times when there are no assignments and there is no income for weeks at a time. The free time every so often is a definite perk, but the down time is probably the worst aspect of this type of contract employment."

Underwriter at Waterstone Mortgage
in Maple Grove, MN

"The only part of the underwriting position I dislike is when you have to work with under qualified loan officers and processors who do not do their job with full capacity. I love helping the borrower(s) to purchase their first home, or simply refinance to put themselves in a better finance position. Sometimes I have to advise the borrower(s) that this is not the right time to purchase or refinance because they do not qualify. Team management is a major component. It's all about the attitude."
