It’s never a bad time in the mortgage biz. The last couple of years it’s been refi central. Now it’s high $$$ purchases with even higher rates. Next will come short sales and foreclosures dealing directly with banks. Cycle is never ending. The industry is full of scum, so if you’re honest and professional with people you will see great success. All it takes is a loan or two, and your referral business will keep bringing them in. Also, it’s very helpful if you know or can get to know some realtors. Tons of strategies to be successful doing it.

My only caution to you: if you think red tape in this industry is bad. The mortgage industry is FAAx100.
