🍊 Tennessee, meet your newest independent LO: Yvonne Berger!

πŸ“ Based in: Louisville, TN
πŸ—ΊοΈ Licensed in: Tennessee

Yvonne officially joins the IMBβ„’ community, and East Tennessee borrowers are the ones who win. She brings the kind of steady, straight-talk guidance that makes the mortgage process feel a whole lot less intimidating.

Here she gets what independence should look like: better pricing for her clients, transparent comp, and a team behind her nights and weekends.

Freedom with support, never freedom on an island.
Give Yvonne a warm welcome in the comments πŸ‘‡

It's 8PM on a Sunday and You Have a Question πŸŒ™

Strange scenario. Monday deadline. Nobody to call.

Every LO who has considered going independent has run that scene at 2am, right before deciding to stay put another year. And the fear was never really about comp. It's about being alone with a file nobody else understands. 😬

So we built the opposite. Support nights and weekends from producing LOs who know the guidelines because they're using them on their own files that same week. Not a help desk. Not someone handing you to a processor who hands you to an AE.

Independence without isolation isn't a tagline here. It's why people stay. ❀️

51% More Sellers Than Buyers. Now What? βš–οΈ

July logged 966,752 active buyers against 1,462,921 sellers.

Record low buyer pool, rates near 6.67%. Buyers are shopping three quotes deep.

❌ RETAIL LO
One lender. One rate sheet. One shot.
"That's the best I can do."

βœ… Independent LO
Dozens of lenders. Shopped pricing.
"Give me an hour, I'll beat it."

Same borrower. Completely different ending.

$18 Trillion Is Sitting There. Who's Calling? πŸ’°

πŸ“Š August numbers:
Total homeowner equity: $18T, an all-time record
Tappable: $11.7T across 47.5 million borrowers

Every one of those is a conversation. Seconds, HELOCs, cash-out, non-QM. In retail, the call dies the second you hit a product your shop doesn't carry, and that client dials someone whose shop does.

Independence means never hit that ceiling. 🧰

The Leap Isn't the Scary Part πŸ˜…
The waiting is.
Comp math at 11pm.
Refreshing an offer letter you never accepted.
Wondering if your pipeline follows you.
Wondering if you've lost your mind. πŸŒ€

Then you finally go. Week three hits and the only thought left is, why did I wait so long?

You already know how to originate. That doesn't evaporate when the logo in your signature changes. It just starts getting paid what it's worth. πŸ’ͺ

You Don't Need to Memorize 60 Lenders 🧠

MYTH: Going independent means learning every lender, every overlay, every quirk, alone.
TRUTH: It means having them searchable. πŸ”

Type "condo warrantable exception" into the portal and pull up the last four times someone here solved it. Guidelines, workarounds, lender contacts, all sitting there.

The learning curve is real. It's just measured in weeks here, not years.

The kids get a fresh start every August. When's yours? πŸ“š

The house goes quiet, the lunches are packed, and you finally get ten minutes with your coffee β€” which is exactly when the dangerous questions show up. β˜•

For a lot of loan officers, what's holding them back was never the market. It's the setup. One lender's rate sheet. A comp plan someone else wrote. Referrals that belong to the name on the letterhead. πŸ“‰

Going independent fixes that β€” without the "figure it out alone for three years" part:
🍎 Coaching and a community that'll tell you what actually works

Independence, minus the isolation. πŸ™Œ

πŸ’° Freedom Pays. Just Look at July. | Top Producers by Volume

Turns out the month of independence and the month of big numbers are the same month. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ When you get to structure every deal the right way, this is the result.

Huge congrats to our July volume leaders:
πŸ₯‡ Zach Sheppard: $5.32M
πŸ₯ˆ Ryan Hillard: $4.13M
πŸ₯‰ Tyler Deines: $4.01M

And a special shoutout to Zach, who topped BOTH the units AND volume boards this month. That's what we call a clean sweep. 🧹

These totals don't come from a one-size-fits-all model. They come from hustle, real relationships, and a platform built to let you scale on your terms. πŸš€

πŸŽ† The Most Independent Month of the Year | July Top Producers by Units

July is literally the month of independence, and our IMBβ„’ loan officers celebrated it the best way they know how: by closing deals. πŸŽ†

Give it up for our July unit leaders:
πŸ₯‡ Zach Sheppard: 10 Units
πŸ₯ˆ Ben Binger: 9 Units
πŸ₯‰ Tyler Deines & Wil Daly: 7 Units
πŸ… Chris Burgess & Ryan Hillard: 6 Units

Every single unit is a client served, a family moving forward, and one more reminder of what happens when you have the freedom to shop for the right lender instead of pushing one bank's products. πŸ’ͺ

One year ago this month, Gabe Vigil bet on himself. πŸŽ‰

Turns out that was a pretty good call.

Congratulations to Gabe Vigil on one full year with IMBβ„’ β€” a year of closing loans on his own terms, building his own brand, and figuring out that independence and support aren't opposites.

Because here's the thing about going independent: you're not on an island. Gabe's got 50+ lenders behind him, a portal that answers the questions most brokers wait days on, and a whole team that picks up the phone. That's the difference between doing it alone and doing it your way.

Here's to year two, Gabe. πŸ₯‚ Drop him a congrats below!
