Become A Program Lender
What's your answer?
When a borrower asks your loan officers if they know anything about that "rural program," what will the answer be? We can work together to make sure your company name is on this list, and your team is ready to serve all rural Nevada homebuyers!
How To Become An Approved Lender
Please Note: If you're already an approved lender with NRH and are here to sign the new participation agreement, please scroll down to the "Master Lender Origination Agreement for Signature" section. The agreement must be signed within Adobe Sign. Please be sure to complete an updated contact sheet and email it to HAL@nvrural.org.
If you're a branch manager, loan officer or support staff looking for program training, please visit HomeAtLastEducation.org. If you're looking for today's rates on our homeownership programs please visit our rates page.
Welcome to Nevada Rural Housing! There are a few steps that need to be completed to get your institution fully onboard with all of the programs NRH has to offer. If you have any questions about or during the process, please use the Contact Us button below, or send an email to HAL@nvrural.org.
Step 1: US Bank & The Money Source (TMS) Correspondent Lender Approval
US Bank and TMS are the servicers for Nevada Rural Housing program loans. If you are not already an approved correspondent lender, follow these steps to begin the process:
• For US Bank, please call (800) 562-5165
• For TMS, please email HFAPrograms@themoneysource.com
Please Note: US Bank services all Nevada Rural Housing programs, while TMS services our TBA programs only. For more information, visit HomeAtLastLenders.org.
Step 2: Sign the lender origination agreement
The lender origination agreement covers all servicers and homeownership program options. The agreement should only be signed by those representatives authorized to sign legally binding participation/origination agreements on behalf of the lending institution. Please note: The form must be signed within the Adobe Sign tool – agreements received outside of Adobe Sign will not be executed.
In addition, please complete the required Contact Sheet below. Only one contact sheet is required per lending institution.
Step 3: Email your US Bank/TMS Correspondent Lender Approval Letter and completed Contact Sheet
Please email your US Bank and TMS Correspondent Lender Approval Letter and completed contact sheet to HAL@nvrural.org.
Once the lender origination agreement, contact sheet and correspondent lender approval letters are received, we'll notify eHousingPlus that your institution is now an approved lender. eHousing will reach out to the main contact on the contact sheet for additional information that is required prior to them granting access to the programs in their systems. That email will come from onboarding@ehpuniversity.com, so please be on the lookout for that email.
Step 4: Program Training
Once Steps 1-3 are complete and the lender origination agreements have been executed, the next step is to complete Program Training. Loan originators, processors, underwriters and anyone who will touch loan files during origination and closing need to complete this training. After completing the lender program training, eHousing will email the individual their user credentials and/or add access to NRH's homeownership programs. Video tutorials for the eHousing reservation platform are available via eHP Front Porch (user credentials required).
