In this episode of the Build-a-Broker podcast, we dive into the journey of Jordan Gerard, the President and Owner of My Community Mortgage. Originally aspiring to attend law school, Jordan’s path took many turns, including various majors in college before landing a job as a bartender. Facing numerous challenges, from begging his mom for money when his car payments were three months behind to borrowing $10k from a buddy to open his brokerage, Jordan's resilience and determination led him to become a successful mortgage broker.

Today, Jordan writes 100 loans a year and leads a team of almost 100 employees. He shares his strategy on moving from the "friend zone" to becoming the go-to mortgage guy, emphasizing the importance of converting friendships into valuable business relationships. He also discusses finding his niche and the unique value of becoming a broker, enabling him to provide clients with exactly what they need.
