The past few years have been a real challenge for all of us in the mortgage profession. We have seen unprecedented changes in licensure, new rules and new legislation. Did you know that Florida Association of Mortgage Professionals (FAMP) began in 1960 and is the oldest Mortgage Association in the Country? The goal of FAMP is to provide education to our members and to promote the Mortgage Broker Profession.
The strength of our non for profit organization is vital to educating the Florida Legislation on the mortgage industry in Florida. As an Association we meet regularly with Florida lawmakers and the Office of Financial Regulation on matters which affect the mortgage industry.
FAMP offers via conference calls, in person class, on-line class and webinars is essential for you to be well prepared in operating your mortgage business.
When you become a member of FAMP, you are actually becoming a member of both the State for Florida FAMP and your Local Chapter. As a member of FAMP, you can attend functions at any Chapter at the preferred member rate.
