"The position of underwriter requires a lot of responsibility and requires a wide amount of knowledge to make sure the loan fits the program. Each loan is different and must be applied to the rules of the specific program individually. Underwriters also protect the down side to make sure the loans that are being written are of good quality to help ensure the survival of the company. All in all I would say that I am compensated fairly for the position."
