Hi Joe, Highly appreciate your valuable information provided in the great article, which inspires me to take the mortgage course this month. My question is: If I got licensed and were hired by a brokerage, should I go to market to find customers myself or the brokerage could assign some mortgage cases to me with assistance at the first couple months?
