NMLS stands for Nationwide Multistate Licensing System. Each company and each loan originator gets a unique NMLS ID, and the public site NMLS Consumer Access shows their licences and any actions taken against them.
Why it matters
It is the quickest way to check that the person and the company you are dealing with are licensed where you live. A legitimate originator will always give you their NMLS ID.
Where you meet it
On websites, emails and every loan document. Stark Processing and Laurie Longhi list theirs at the bottom of every page.
