Remote Mortgage Loan Officer (California) at Zillow

This role is ideal for experienced mortgage professionals with at least 3 years of purchase-focused origination experience. Since Zillow provides the leads, they are looking for high-energy "closers" who can thrive in either a fast-paced, phone-based sales environment or a consultative model collaborating with real estate agents. You must already have a solid grasp of NMLS requirements and a proven track record of managing a high-volume pipeline. The standout feature of this position is the **fully remote California-based** flexibility backed by a powerhouse brand and a steady stream of company-provided leads. While the base pay is modest ($12–$25/hr), the role is designed for high earners through an **incentive compensation structure**. You’ll also benefit from Zillow’s centralized operations, meaning you can focus on selling while dedicated teams handle the heavy lifting of processing and underwriting. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Currently hold an active NMLS license and have passed the SAFE Mortgage Loan Originator Test. * Thrive in a metrics-driven environment where success is measured by conversion and funding rates. * Are a California resident looking for a remote role with the stability of a Fortune 100 "Best Company to Work For." * Experience success in purchase-money mortgages rather than just refinances.
