New Jersey Mortgage Licensing

New Jersey offers a Lender license and a Broker license. New Jersey has Qualified Individual requirements, including the fact that one of the individuals that serves as owner, officer, or principal must have a NJ Qualified Individual MLO License. Audited financial statement is required for both applications demonstrating your net worth meets the state’s requirements, $50,000 for the Broker and $250,000 for the Lender.  Both licenses require each officer to complete a federal and a NJ state specific background check.
