About Weston Funding
Weston Funding is a nationwide private lender specializing in Fix & Flip, Bridge, Ground-Up Construction, and DSCR loans for real estate investors.
We lend in 46 states and focus on helping investors move quickly and close with certainty. Our borrowers rely on us to perform so they can secure properties, start projects, and scale their businesses — and we take that responsibility seriously.
We’re a growing, high-performance team that values speed, responsiveness, attention to detail, strong communication, and collaboration.
This is not a corporate “eat what you kill” environment. We work closely as a team, support each other, communicate openly, and strive to improve every day.
About the Role
We’re looking for an Internal Loan Officer to manage inbound investor leads, structure deals, and guide borrowers through the lending process from origination to closing.
This is an inside sales role focused on relationship building, deal structuring, and pipeline management. Weston Funding provides inbound opportunities and an existing borrower database so Loan Officers can focus on converting and closing deals.
You’ll work directly with real estate investors across the country while partnering closely with our processing, underwriting, and operations teams to ensure loans close quickly and smoothly.
This role is ideal for junior mortgage professionals looking to grow, candidates with 1–2 years of hard money or investor lending experience, or polished, driven sales professionals familiar with the lending process who want to build a long-term career in private lending.
What You’ll Do
· Manage inbound leads from initial contact through closing
· Structure loan scenarios and issue term sheets
· Build relationships with real estate investors and guide them through the financing process
· Maintain consistent communication with borrowers regarding deal structure, underwriting feedback, and loan conditions
· Work closely with underwriting, processing, and closing teams to keep deals moving efficiently
· Manage and maintain your active pipeline with strong follow-through and attention to detail
· Build long-term borrower relationships that generate repeat and referral business
· Handle high daily call activity and maintain responsiveness throughout the loan process
· Learn and master Weston Funding’s loan products, underwriting approach, and operational process
