Revenue share, downline economics, and the systems that make recruits actually succeed.
- Building a mortgage team means moving from 'originate every loan yourself' to 'build a system other loan officers plug into — and get paid on their production.
- At NEXA Lending, when you recruit a loan officer you earn 10 bps every time they originate a loan, down three levels — passive income that compounds and stays yours even if you or they later move.
- The economics are real, but the hard part isn't the comp — it's the recruiting, onboarding, and support that make your recruits actually succeed.
- Renato Rodic's downline is 10 levels deep and accounts for nearly 51% of NEXA's growth.
