Exam Tip
Lender questions often test the difference between brokering and making or servicing loans, lender branch authority, financial responsibility, lock-ins, required reports, servicing records, and individual LO licensing.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- -Using generic federal mortgage facts when Florida OFR or Chapter 494 rules are being tested
- -Confusing loan originator, mortgage broker business, mortgage lender, servicer, branch, and processor authority
- -Treating Florida education, renewal, records, advertisements, trust funds, or OFR enforcement rules as optional
