UWM just shook up the wholesale platform game, and we are going to talk about it.
In this episode of The MLO Project, Frazier, and Michael dive into UWM’s big partnership with Sphere LOS and what it really means for mortgage brokers.
They break down how Sphere stacks up against Arrive, LendingPad, and other LOS platforms, what this means for competition in the market, and whether this shift is a win or a risk for LOs. Plus, they zoom out to discuss the bigger picture—how mortgage tech is evolving and what it means for the retail side of the industry.
