There are over 6,000 people involved in the Colorado real estate finance industry. As a consumer, it's important to be wise when selecting a mortgage banker or broker to provide your lending needs. A reputable lender will provide quality services at competitive prices.

CMLA lender members - meaning mortgage bankers and brokers - demonstrate their commitment to integrity-based lending through voluntary membership with CMLA and by abiding by the association's Code of Ethics. CMLA members are encouraged to have ongoing involvement in educational events and community initiatives. Lenders who have industry experience and who have demonstrated professional aptitude may obtain the designation Certified Mortgage Lender (CML). In order to receive the CML designation, an applicant must certify that they have not been convicted of a felony an that they are not listed on the Fannie Mae Excluded Parties List or HUD Limited Denial of Participation (LDP) lists.

When you do business with a CMLA member, you may feel confident that you'll have a professional lending experience. Taking that a step further and doing business with an individual who is a Certified Mortgage Lender indicates your desire to do business with a documented professional who strives to earn repeat and referral business through long term relationships with his or her customers.

CMLA encourages consumers to include CMLA members in their shopping efforts, especially those individuals who hold the designation Certified Mortgage Lender.
