Real client experiences.

“They’ve been super quick to help us get set up in the state of Arizona and we could not have done it without them!”

“Everything was explained clearly upfront and handled in a way that made licensing simple and stress free.”

Client example: An Arizona mortgage company

A coordinated RI transition.

  1. Replace an existing RI.

    An Arizona mortgage company needed to change its Responsible Individual.

  2. Coordinate the transition.

    Christian worked with the company to coordinate its RI replacement.

  3. Same-day RI change approval.

    The existing company’s RI change was approved that day.

This was an RI change for an existing company, not a new company license approval. Approval timing varies with the application, required documentation and regulatory review.
