For newer loan officers

You don't have to figure it out alone.

Most new LOs spend their first year piecing it together and wondering why it's so hard. At Dwell you get daily coaching from day one, a real accountability rhythm, and a company that treats you like a partner from your very first file. Because we're W-2 on purpose. You're not a contractor. You're family.

The coaching runway most new LOs never get.

Most new LOs get a login and a prayer. At Dwell you get a real coaching schedule from day one, a team who watches your pipeline, and a standard to rise to. Freedom without a framework doesn't build producers. This does.

your first year

Your first year, mapped out.

Not "we'll be here if you need us." A structured schedule from before you close your first loan through your entire first year.

First 30 Days

Daily 1:1 coaching with Shane

Every single day for your first 30 days. Direct time with a former Top 1% originator who is active in the industry, driving the AI and tech initiatives shaping it. Not a manager checking call counts. A coach making sure your first month builds the habits that carry you through year one and beyond.

Weekly, ongoing

1:1 coaching with Shane

After your first 30 days, coaching moves to weekly for your first six months. You stay in contact, keep building, and have someone to work through real problems with as they come up.

Weekly

LO growth & accountability calls

The whole team, together. Where wins get shared, problems get solved out loud, and the standard stays high because everyone can see it.

Monthly

Market updates with Dan

A monthly read on the market so you walk into every client and partner conversation sounding like the most informed person in the room.

Twice a year

Dwell Summit, in person

We get the whole company in a room twice a year and bring in experts from inside and outside the industry. Because the best ideas rarely come from other mortgage people.

Core sales & ops discipline

The Rule of 3

One of our core beliefs. The moment a file sits in one stage longer than three days, problems start. We hold that standard internally and drive it with every LO. Ops watches it all day, every day, and flags it before it costs you a deal. You stay on top of your pipeline because the system is built to keep it that way.

an unfair advantage

Every LO gets The Collective.

The full Collective Coaching library, included

Shane built a whole company teaching loan officers how to use AI. Every training, every webinar, and every product he sells over there, you get all of it free as a Dwell LO. The AI playbooks, the prompt banks, the courses, the live trainings. It's the kind of edge most LOs pay thousands for.

why we're W-2

We're W-2 on purpose, because you're family, not a contractor.

A contractor gets a payout. A partner gets coaching, a team, a market read, two trips a year with people who have their back, and a founder who actually knows their name. We chose the structure that lets us treat you like the second one.

the inside view

Here's why she started here.

I chose Dwell because I see it as a boutique brokerage. As a broker, I work for my clients, not a bank. I get to shop over 40 investors to find them the best rate for their unique situation. I’m their advocate, whether it’s their first home or their forever home.

What surprised me is the team. Loan officers who actually share knowledge, share ideas, and help each other. I loved my first 30 days here.
