About NAMB

The National Association of Mortgage Brokers is the voice of the mortgage broker industry, representing the interests of mortgage brokers and homebuyers since 1973.

The Association is committed to promoting the highest degree of professionalism and ethical standards for its members. In addition to mandating members adhere to a professional code of ethics, NAMB provides mortgage brokers with professional education opportunities, and offers rigorous certification programs to recognize members with the highest levels of professional knowledge and education. As the sole national trade association for this industry, NAMB is affiliated with all 50 state associations and the District of Columbia. NAMB’s active lobbying and advocacy efforts frequently focus on national and state issues.

The Association hosts several meetings throughout the year. NAMB also offers members a host of benefits aimed at increasing productivity and lowering business costs. Most NAMB members are small business owners.

Since mortgage brokers participate in more than 50% of home loans originations, homebuyers’ interests are also important to NAMB. The Association supports a consumer education and fraud reporting program with information and links available on the http://www.namb.org website.

Why did NAMB Create the Lending Integrity Seal of Approval?

NAMB saw a need for Hardworking, Professional, Ethical Mortgage Brokers to distinguish themselves from the few bad actors who operate in the mortgage industry. A way for consumers to easily identify loan originators who have pledge to abide by a National Standard when it comes to a Professional Standards, a Code of Ethics, Continuing Education, and more.
