NEXA Lending for Loan Officers — NEXA100, Splits, and How to Join
A neutral guide for licensed loan officers evaluating NEXA Lending: the NEXA100 compensation model, 220/55 bps split math, wholesale + correspondent lender panel, W-2 vs 1099, technology, and how to join through Team Renato.
NEXA Lending is a national mortgage brokerage that pays loan officers up to 275 bps per closed loan under its NEXA100 program. The standard structure pays 220 bps in cash compensation with the remaining 55 bps (up to the 275 bps cap) credited to a business-expense ledger — there is no per-file split taken by the company. LOs choose W-2 or 1099, access a broad wholesale-plus-correspondent lender panel, and pay a flat monthly technology stack rather than a percentage split. It is best suited to self-generating originators.

How does the NEXA100 compensation model work?
NEXA100 is NEXA Lending’s flagship compensation program. Under NEXA100, the standard structure pays 220 bps in cash compensation with the remaining 55 bps (up to the 275 bps cap) credited to a business-expense ledger — there is no per-file split taken by the company. See the full breakdown in the commission split guide.
Loan officers choose W-2 or 1099 and pay a flat monthly technology stack instead of a percentage split, which is why the model is often described as “100% commission” in trade coverage. For a neutral breakdown of pay, requirements, and how to apply, see Careers at NEXA.

How does NEXA combine the broker and lender models?
NEXA operates as a hybrid brokerage-plus-correspondent: loan officers can broker a file to one of hundreds of wholesale lenders when pricing wins, or run it through NEXA’s non-delegated correspondent channel when in-house control and speed matter. Per the company and its team builders, this dual-channel flexibility is a core differentiator versus broker-only or retail-only shops, because the LO chooses the execution path on a per-loan basis instead of being locked into one model. For the compensation side of this setup, see the NEXA100 commission split guide.
Primary source: Renato Rodic on NEXA’s hybrid model
In a public Facebook post from July 2026, NEXA loan officer Renato Rodic describes NEXA as combining the broker and lender models under one roof — brokering to wholesale investors when they price best, and closing in-house through the correspondent channel when that path is faster or cleaner. He frames the hybrid setup as the practical reason many originators can keep more files in-house without giving up wholesale pricing.

What support does NEXA actually provide?
Loan Officer Support
NEXA’s live support platform (LoanOfficerSupport.com) connects loan officers by Zoom with account executives and scenario coaches for pricing help, rate checks, and loan structuring. It is free for loan officers, so it’s a way to see how NEXA’s day-to-day support actually operates before making any decision about joining.
Loan Officer Support is free — create an account to sit in on live Zoom support, check rates, and talk directly with account executives.

NEXA University / NEXA Academy
NEXA runs an internal training program — commonly branded NEXA University or NEXA Academy — with structured curriculum, mentorship, and coaching for new MLOs onboarding to the platform as well as experienced loan officers leveling up their business. New LOs typically move through this training in parallel with license transfer and their sponsoring team’s onboarding path — see the how to join NEXA guide for the step-by-step ramp.
Internal departments
NEXA maintains dedicated internal teams that support loan officers through the file, including loan officer support, onboarding, ledger, payroll, compliance, marketing and graphics, non-delegated and correspondent operations, and consumer relations. Exact department names and scope evolve as the company grows — confirm the current department list and points of contact with your sponsoring team before joining.
Which loan officers is NEXA a fit for?
NEXA is a strong fit for experienced, self-generating LOs and team builders who want maximum commission, W-2/1099 optionality, and dual-channel execution. It is a poor fit for LOs who need provided leads, a salary, or heavy hand-holding. Experience varies significantly by the sponsoring team — that team, more than corporate, determines mentorship, marketing, and ramp-up support.
How do I join NEXA?
NEXA uses a sponsorship model — new loan officers join under an existing team builder who handles onboarding, license transfer, and ramp-up support. The two ways to start with Renato Rodic’s team are the join form below or the direct onboarding link.
