The work

Tasks this hire takes

A virtual assistant for mortgage brokers chases documents and keeps the pipeline moving.

The broker still recommends the loan and speaks to the client.

Two jobs shape a normal week for mortgage brokers: Chase payslips, statements and ID against the checklist, and update the deal stage in Salestrekker or MyCRM. Firms hire for that rhythm, not for an empty inbox.

  • Chase payslips, statements and ID against the checklist

  • Update the deal stage in Salestrekker or MyCRM

  • Book fact-finds the broker will run

  • Prep the submission pack for the broker to check

  • Diary clawback and review dates the broker set

Chase payslips, statements and ID against the checklist. For mortgage brokers, that work sits beside Salestrekker, MyCRM or Connective Mercury. The principal still makes the call above it.

Update the deal stage in Salestrekker or MyCRM. Ask each finalist for mortgage brokers when they last did this, and whether they did it in Salestrekker, MyCRM or Connective Mercury.

The brief for mortgage brokers should treat this as a standing job: book fact-finds the broker will run. Salestrekker, MyCRM or Connective Mercury is where the office checks it.

Prep the submission pack for the broker to check. If the hire has not used Salestrekker, MyCRM or Connective Mercury, the first month for mortgage brokers includes learning it, and the principal still reviews the output.

Diary clawback and review dates the broker set. For mortgage brokers, write down what done looks like, and who is told when it is finished.

The line
