Utah Mortgage Licensing
There are two regulatory bodies in Utah, the Division of Real Estate (DRE) and the Department of Financial Institutions (DFI). Each oversees different license types and each has distinct requirements. The DRE Mortgage Entity License requires you to submit a separate license for each trade name, whereas the DFI Residential First Mortgage Notification does not have this requirement or limit the number of trade names a company can hold. The DFI does not require a named Qualified Individual (QI) but the DRE does. For the DRE the QI must hold a special MLO license called the Principal Lending Manager (PLM) license. The UT-PLM MLO application requires an additional 40 hours of off NMLS specific UT-PLM education to be completed as well as pass the UT-PLM Exam. A PLM is also a requirement for each branch location that wishes to apply to conduct UT business.
