8 Hour SAFE Comprehensive Federal CE 2018 – November 2018

Deb was great in presenting the true nature of the course piece by piece and helped with her many years of experience outline some of the more critical areas of the industry and expectations. The course was excellent because the provider was an experienced mortgage veteran for many years and understands how to present the material to make sure the key points as well as the main facts of the true nature of the job are outlined while instilling the required knowledge of the federal laws and guidelines mandated in the industry.
