LoanLeads.io sells mortgage loan leads to loan officers, mortgage brokers, nonbank lenders, credit unions and reverse mortgage specialists. Leads cover refinance, FHA, reverse and purchase. Each one comes from a consumer who submitted an inquiry and gave TCPA consent. Buyers filter by state, credit range, property value, loan amount and occupancy, and receive real-time, aged or live transfer leads.
Which mortgage leads can you buy?
Mortgage leads on LoanLeads.io are sorted by loan purpose: refinance, FHA, reverse and purchase. Each purpose attracts a different borrower and a different buyer, so pick the purpose before you pick a volume.
| Loan purpose | Who the borrower usually is | Fields that matter most |
|---|---|---|
| Refinance (rate-and-term or cash-out) | A current homeowner with an existing mortgage | Estimated home value, current balance, credit range, cash-out amount |
| FHA | Often a first-time buyer or a borrower with a smaller down payment or lower score | Credit range, purchase price or value, down payment, state |
| Reverse | An older homeowner with significant equity. For the FHA-insured HECM, at least one borrower must be 62 or older | Age, home value, remaining balance, occupancy as primary residence |
| Purchase | A buyer shopping for a home, with or without an accepted offer | Purchase timeline, price range, down payment, pre-approval status, agent in place |
A refinance lead and a purchase lead need different scripts. A refinance borrower wants a number. A purchase borrower wants a pre-approval letter and a loan officer who answers the phone on Saturday. Build separate campaigns so your reporting does not mix the two.
Who buys mortgage leads?
Mortgage leads are bought by licensed originators and the companies that employ them. The main buyer types are:
- Loan officers at retail lenders and banks who want a steady flow of borrowers in the states where they hold a license.
- Mortgage brokers who shop a borrower across wholesale lenders and can take a wider credit range.
- Nonbank lender call centers that run refinance and cash-out volume with teams of licensed originators.
- Credit unions that lend to members and use leads to reach new members in their field of membership.
- Reverse mortgage specialists who need longer, more patient conversations and often involve the borrower's family.
Every one of these buyers has the same first filter: the state. A loan officer can only originate where they are licensed, so your state list is the first thing to set and the first thing to check when a lead looks wrong. The second filter is usually credit range: a broker with access to wholesale FHA and non-QM lenders can take borrowers a retail bank would turn away, and paying for leads you cannot place is the fastest way to lose money in this vertical.
What does a mortgage lead contain?
A mortgage lead gives you the property, the borrower's goal and enough of their finances to open a useful first call. Fields are agreed per campaign. A typical refinance or purchase form collects the following.
| Field | How a loan officer uses it |
|---|---|
| Name, phone, email | First contact by call, text and email |
| Property state and ZIP | Licensing check and local pricing |
| Property type and occupancy | Single-family, condo or multi-unit; primary, second home or investment |
| Estimated home value and current balance | Rough loan-to-value before you pull anything |
| Loan purpose and cash-out amount | Which product to quote first |
| Self-reported credit range | Conventional, FHA or a referral |
| Military service | Flags a possible VA conversation |
| Consent details | Timestamp and the disclosure the borrower agreed to |
Values and credit are self-reported. Treat them as the borrower's estimate. Your application, credit report and appraisal set the real numbers.
Real-time, aged or live transfer for mortgage?
Most mortgage teams start with real-time leads for refinance and live transfers for high-intent purchase traffic, then add aged leads for nurture. Rates move, and a borrower who passed on a refinance last spring may want a quote after a rate drop.
| Real-time exclusive | Aged | Live transfer | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best mortgage use | Refinance and cash-out quotes | Rate-drop campaigns and long purchase cycles | Borrowers ready to talk numbers now |
| Follow-up | Call in minutes, then text and email the same hour | Email and text first, call responders | Quote or pre-qualify on the live call |
| Price position | Higher per record | Lowest per record | Priced per call |
| Staffing need | Originators free to dial fast | A nurture system and patience | Licensed originators on shift during set hours |
If your team also takes personal loan or debt consolidation volume, see our debt consolidation leads. Homeowners who are not ready for a cash-out refinance sometimes ask about unsecured options instead.
How do ordering and delivery work for mortgage leads?
You order mortgage leads by matching the campaign to your licenses, then testing before you scale. The steps:
- Apply. Use the buyer application or book a call. Have your NMLS states ready.
- Set the state list. Only states where your originators are licensed.
- Choose purposes and filters. Refinance, FHA, reverse or purchase, plus credit range, property value, loan amount, occupancy and homeownership.
- Connect delivery. Real-time posting to your CRM or point-of-sale system by API, webhook or posting URL, or email. A test lead confirms the field mapping.
- Run a test. Track each lead to application, then to closed loan, since mortgage cycles can run for weeks.
- Scale what closes. Shift budget to the purposes and states with the best cost per closed loan.
Before the first lead arrives, get three things ready. First, a routing rule that sends each lead to an originator licensed in the borrower's state, so nobody calls a borrower they cannot serve. Second, a short script for each loan purpose: a refinance call opens with the borrower's goal and current rate, a purchase call opens with their timeline and whether they have an agent. Third, a nurture track for borrowers who are not ready, because a purchase lead that is six months out today may be your closing next season. Teams that set these up before the test usually get a cleaner read on the leads themselves.
Mortgage compliance notes for lead buyers
Mortgage is one of the most regulated lead verticals. This is a general overview as of 2026, not legal advice. Review your program with counsel before you buy or pay for leads.
- RESPA Section 8. The Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act bars giving or accepting any fee, kickback or thing of value for referrals of settlement service business on federally related mortgage loans. Payments for goods or services actually provided, at fair market value, are treated differently. In a February 2023 advisory opinion, the CFPB said a digital comparison platform can violate Section 8 if it steers consumers to the lenders that pay it rather than using neutral criteria. Lead buyers should know how their leads are generated and what they pay for.
- State licensing and the SAFE Act. The SAFE Act requires mortgage loan originators to be state-licensed or federally registered and listed in NMLS. States add their own rules. Only contact borrowers in states where you can lawfully originate.
- Trigger leads. The Homebuyers Privacy Protection Act, signed September 5, 2025, restricts credit bureaus from selling mortgage trigger leads except in narrow cases. It took effect in early March 2026. LoanLeads.io leads come from consumers who submitted an inquiry, not from credit bureau triggers.
- TCPA. Calls and texts need consent, and opt-outs must be honored within 10 business days under FCC rules in effect since April 11, 2025. Read how consent is captured on our TCPA consent and privacy page.

Two real LoanLeads.io buyers, in their own words.

FAQQuestions buyers ask
Can I buy mortgage leads only in states where I am licensed?
Yes, and you should. State is a standard filter, and it is the first one to set. Give us the list of states where your originators hold a license, and leads from other states are not delivered to you. If you add a license later, tell us and the state can be added to your campaign.
Are these mortgage trigger leads?
No. A trigger lead is created when a credit bureau sells notice that a consumer applied for a mortgage, and federal law now restricts that practice. LoanLeads.io mortgage leads come from consumers who filled out an inquiry and agreed to be contacted. Ask us how a specific campaign is generated if you want the details.
Do you sell reverse mortgage leads?
Yes. Reverse is one of the four mortgage purposes, along with refinance, FHA and purchase. For the FHA-insured HECM, at least one borrower must be 62 or older and the home must be their primary residence. Filters such as age, home value and remaining balance help you skip borrowers who clearly cannot qualify.
How fast should a loan officer call a mortgage lead?
For real-time refinance and purchase leads, call within minutes and send a text and email right after. Borrowers often request quotes from more than one lender. If your team cannot respond that fast during business hours, aged leads with an email and text nurture plan, or live transfers, are usually a better fit.
Can mortgage leads post into my CRM or point-of-sale system?
Most modern mortgage CRMs and point-of-sale platforms accept inbound records, and leads can post to them through an API, a webhook or a posting URL. Email works too. A sample lead arrives before the paid order so your team can check that loan purpose, property details and the consent record each land in the right field.
Is buying mortgage leads a RESPA problem?
It can be, depending on how the leads are generated and what you pay for. RESPA Section 8 targets payments for referrals of settlement service business, while fair market value payments for services actually provided are treated differently. The CFPB has issued guidance on digital lead platforms. Review your arrangement with counsel before you start.
What does a mortgage lead cost?
It varies with what you ask for. A purchase campaign in one competitive state is priced differently from a nationwide refinance campaign with a wide credit band, and a live call is priced differently from a web form. Bring your NMLS states and the loan purposes you want, and you will get a campaign quote on the call.
How should I judge a mortgage lead test?
Judge it on cost per closed loan, not cost per lead. Mortgage cycles are long, so track each lead from contact to application to closing, and give purchase leads more time than refinance leads. Compare results by loan purpose and state, then move budget toward the combinations that close.
