Built by Loan Officers. For Loan Officers.

The Origin

One Denial That
Changed an Industry

Mike Kortas was a top-producing retail loan officer at EPM. Like every high performer, he was generating his own business, closing deals, and building relationships — only to watch a significant portion of his earnings go to a company that wasn't producing alongside him.

He went to upper management and asked for a raise. He was denied. That moment forced a question that would reshape the industry:

"Why am I generating my own business just for a company to take almost a third of the profits?"

He didn't complain. He built something better.

The Promise He Made

Mike vowed to build a brand that would never hold a loan officer back — one that gave every self-generating LO all the tools to run their own business while earning top-tier commissions.

The Result

He launched NEXA. At 60 LOs, he set a bold target: reach 300 by end of 2019. Today, NEXA is 4,000 strong — and growing.

The Proof

Why a $2 Billion Producing Brokerage Chose to Join NEXA

U Mortgage — 256 loan officers strong — closed its independent brokerage operation and moved to the NEXA Lending platform. These are the four key reasons Anthony Casa, CEO of UMortgage, decided to close UMortgage and join the NEXA Lending platform.

01

Better Compensation & Pricing

Even with $2 billion in annual production, U Mortgage could not independently compete with NEXA's pricing. NEXA leverages the collective production of approximately 4,000 loan officers to negotiate the best interest rates with its lenders.

02

NEXA 100

Their former model could not offer loan officers 100% compensation. The NEXA platform can. NEXA's annual production volume allows us to give back to our loan officers. Our model is simple: the more NEXA funds, the more our loan officers receive in return.

03

Revenue Share

Even at $2 billion in annual production, the company could not share its profits with the people helping it grow. NEXA's Revenue Share model rewards loan officers for contributing to the company's expansion.

04

Servicing Income

The final deciding factor: NEXA allows loan officers to participate in servicing income, maintain control of their client portfolios, and continue serving their clients as their dedicated Servicing Manager.

Keep your brand.
Keep your control.
Lose the headaches.

If you are a broker owner who is tired of higher rates, compliance demands, audits, call reports, payroll, legal responsibilities, and operational headaches, it may be time to consider a platform that does all the heavy lifting while you focus on what you do best — generating business.

Compensation

Get Paid What You Earn.
Every Day at NEXA.

At NEXA, payday is every day. Why should a company hold your money for two weeks — or an entire month? Once your loan closes, NEXA receives the funds, and you submit your payroll, your compensation is processed. It's that simple.

A Compensation Structure Built for Loan Officers

NEXA's compensation structure is built in layers — all designed to maximize what the originating loan officer takes home.

There are no built-in margins added to lender pricing. You see raw pricing, allowing you to offer your clients the most competitive interest-rate options available.

When you close a loan through our correspondent channel, you can view the actual purchase advice — so you know exactly what NEXA earned on the transaction.

No hidden margins. No guessing. Just true transparency.

The Base Structure

Every loan is subject to a 25 BPS operational cost. After that, 12% of the remaining broker check is held for NEXA's Revenue Share Model. What's left is yours — and the structure is designed to make that number as large as possible.

To provide you with full transparency, the compensation plans shown in the image already include the 25 basis-point operational cost and the 12% allocated to NEXA's Revenue Share model.

NEXA 100 Unlimited — No Requirements

NEXA Unlimited 100

Fund a loan through our correspondent channel with UWM, Penny Mac, Longbridge, Finance of America, or Deep Haven and you receive 100% of the commission check.

The 25 BPS and 12% are credited to your Growth & Marketing Ledger — a fund you control for business expenses like CRM tools, Facebook ads, realtor lunches, networking events and much more. Upload your receipts. NEXA reimburses you from its own profits.

NEXA 100 — Grow Your Business, Earn 100%

NEXA 100

With NEXA's correspondent lenders, you can qualify for 100% commission by helping NEXA grow. Recruit a loan officer who funds a loan in the same month you fund one, and you qualify for NEXA 100.

NEXA places the 25 BPS and 12% into your growth and marketing ledger, giving you funds to invest in your business and operations. It's a way to earn more from the loans you close while building the business you want. Your growth helps NEXA grow, and NEXA rewards you for it.

Effective for loans funding September 1, 2026 forward. ** Maximum compensation to a loan officer will not exceed 300 bps; any amount above that threshold is allocated to the overage ledger. Scroll the plan sideways to read every column. Open full size →

Revenue Share — It's a Legacy

Build Income Beyond
Your Own Production

From the beginning, Mike Kortas envisioned a company that would reward the people who helped build it. Instead of NEXA keeping the 12% company profit generated from loan officers, NEXA gives it to those who help the company grow. Recruiting rewards are not a flat one-time $100 or $200 stipend — you are rewarded for helping the people you recruit grow, succeed, and flourish on the NEXA platform.

How the 12% Is Shared

When someone you recruit closes a loan, the eligible revenue share is divided equally across three levels.

4% goes to you.
4% goes to the person who recruited you.
4% goes to the person who recruited them.
Worked Example

$400,000 Loan Amount

Broker check$10,000
Operational cost at 25 BPS (based on loan amount)−$1,000
Remaining revenue$9,000
12% Revenue Share (held after 25 BPS)$1,080
Paid at each of the three eligible levels $360

The Long View

A Legacy Your Family
Can Count On

Over the past eight years, 12 members of the NEXA family have sadly passed away while working with the company. Their contributions were not forgotten — and neither were their families.

To this day, Revenue Share continues to be paid to the families of our fallen NEXANs. What they built during their lives continues to provide for the people they loved most.

That is the true power of Revenue Share. It is not only additional income today. It is an opportunity to build something that can outlive you, support your family, and become part of your legacy.

Build Your Revenue Share Today.
Retire on Your Terms Tomorrow.

When you eventually stop originating loans, how will you replace your production income? Revenue Share gives you the opportunity to build long-term income that can continue after you retire — as long as the loan officers in your downlines remain with NEXA and continue producing.

You spend your career building relationships and helping others succeed. At NEXA, those same relationships can help you build lasting financial security and retire on your own terms.

Don't Just Build a Career.
Build a Legacy.

NEXA Plus

Turn Every Closing Into Long-Term Servicing Income and Pipeline Control

NEXA didn't stop at 100% commission. With NEXA Plus, you now have access to a second form of income — one that no one in the mortgage industry has ever offered a loan officer before.

Through EVOLend, a third-party servicing company, you can access your clients' servicing information in real time. See when they order a payoff. See when they make their mortgage payment. Stay connected to your book of business long after closing.

STEP 01

You Close Through Our Correspondent Channel

Close a loan through NEXA's correspondent channel. Without you, that loan never existed.

STEP 02

Servicing Goes Live

Real-time servicing visibility through EVOLend on every loan you close through the correspondent channel.

STEP 03

You Get Paid Monthly

When your clients make their monthly payments, you receive a portion of the servicing income. Month after month.

Why Does This Matter?

For the first time in the history of mortgage, a loan officer can receive residual servicing income from the loans they close.

Real-time servicing visibility on every closed loan
Monthly residual payments tied to your client portfolio
Income that compounds as your book of business grows

Your pipeline becomes an asset — not just a transaction.

FSBO.com

An Exclusive Business-Building Advantage at NEXA

Imagine having direct access to For-Sale-by-Owner opportunities across the country — built right into your mortgage platform.

More Than a Lead Source

Direct Access to FSBO Opportunities — Nationwide

FSBO.com is one of the country's largest platforms for homeowners selling without a real estate agent. In 2026, it was acquired by Mike Kortas — and in April 2026, a dedicated Loan Officer Portal was launched to connect mortgage professionals directly with FSBO opportunities.

"FSBO.com is not simply another website. It is a business-development opportunity built into the NEXA platform."

Build Your Realtor Network

Stop Asking Realtors for Business. Start Bringing Them Opportunities.

The most powerful FSBO.com strategy isn't just finding borrowers — it's using seller connections to become indispensable to top Realtors in your market.

{{ step.index }} {{ step.label }}

One FSBO connection can generate a potential listing for a Realtor, financing for the seller's next home, a mortgage from the buyer, a new referral partner, and future purchase and refinance business — all from a single introduction.

Potential Listing

Bring a local Realtor a real opportunity — not just a referral request.

Mortgage Opportunity

Finance the seller's next purchase and the buyer's transaction.

One introduction can become a long-term, high-volume referral relationship.

BDM Program

The Advantage You've Been Missing

In a high interest rate environment, standing out is everything. NEXA's Business Development Manager (BDM) Program gives you a competitive edge no other brokerage offers.

01

You Identify a Partner

Build relationships with professionals who regularly work with potential mortgage clients. Realtors, CPAs, divorce attorneys, financial advisors — anyone not licensed as an MLO and who cannot work in Arizona.

02

They Join as a Part-Time W2

Your marketing partner becomes a part-time W2 employee of NEXA. They do what they do best: market, network, and send business your way.

03

They Generate Business

When their marketing brings a loan to the table, you step in, work the file, and take it to the finish line. Clean. Professional. Compliant.

04

Everyone Wins. Everyone Gets Paid.

Once payroll is submitted, NEXA pays your BDM directly from the loan commission, ensuring they are properly compensated for the marketing efforts that helped generate the business.

Choose from four flexible compensation structures for your BDM — you decide what works best for you and your partners.

1

Flat Fee Per Loan

A fixed dollar amount paid per closed loan — simple, predictable, and easy to explain to your partners.

2

Tiered Flat Fee

Your BDM is rewarded for results — the more loans you close through their marketing efforts each month, the more they earn.

3

Flat Basis Points

A set number of basis points paid on each loan, tied directly to loan size for proportional compensation.

4

Tiered Basis Points

Basis point compensation increases as your BDM drives more closings in a month, scaling with performance.

$500K+
Paid to Marketing Partners

Since February 2026, NEXA has paid out over $500,000 in commissions to BDM marketing partners and counting. The BDM Program turns your professional network into a fully compliant, revenue-generating marketing engine — fueling your pipeline without adding overhead.

4,000 Strong.

Mike Kortas's vow on day one still drives every decision at NEXA: "How can I give the loan officer more of everything they need while operating a sustainable brokerage?" That question has taken NEXA from 60 loan officers to over 4,000 NEXANs — and the momentum has never been stronger.

The future looks very bright. We have only just begun.
