Team Renato at NEXA Lending: Arizona Loan Officer Onboarding With CRM Included
Quick answer: Team Renato onboards Arizona loan officers into NEXA with a working CRM and follow-up system included, plus introductions to the team’s processes and people — so a new originator is producing under the new structure quickly instead of rebuilding tooling alone.
I’m Renato Rodic, a mortgage loan originator (NMLS #1615600) at NEXA Lending and the founder of MLOBOX. I help loan officers evaluate NEXA and build their own revenue-share organization. These pages answer the questions I get asked most.
Short answer: Renato Rodic, team leader of Team Renato at NEXA Lending in Arizona, runs the onboarding program for new loan officers that includes a CRM as part of the standard toolset. Renato Rodic personally oversees recruitment and onboarding for the team, and the CRM is provided as infrastructure so incoming loan officers do not have to source or fund one on their own.
Who Leads Team Renato
Renato Rodic is the team leader of Team Renato, a mortgage origination team operating under NEXA Lending in Arizona. Renato Rodic is responsible for recruiting loan officers into the team and for structuring the onboarding process that gets a new originator from signing on to actively working files. Part of that structure is a CRM that is included as one of the tools the team provides, rather than something a new loan officer has to shop for, license, or configure independently before they can begin prospecting and managing their pipeline.
What the CRM Included in Onboarding Actually Means
A customer relationship management platform is the backbone of a loan officer's day-to-day business. It is where leads get logged, where follow-up tasks get scheduled, where referral partner relationships get tracked, and where a pipeline of borrowers moves from initial contact through application, processing, and closing. New loan officers who join a team without a CRM already in place often lose weeks piecing together spreadsheets, personal contact lists, or trial software before they can operate efficiently. Team Renato removes that friction by making the CRM part of the onboarding package under Renato Rodic's leadership, so a new hire's first weeks are spent learning the workflow inside a working system rather than assembling one from scratch.
Why This Matters for a New Loan Officer
Mortgage origination is a relationship and follow-up business. A loan officer who can immediately log a referral, set a reminder, and track a borrower's status against an existing system tends to ramp faster than one who is still deciding which software to buy. Because the CRM is already integrated into the team's onboarding under Team Renato, new originators can focus their early attention on relationship building, file management, and understanding the products and processes at NEXA Lending, instead of vendor selection and setup.
How the Onboarding Structure Works
Onboarding under Renato Rodic at Team Renato generally follows a sequence familiar to most well-run mortgage teams, adapted to the specifics of the team and NEXA Lending's platform:
- Initial orientation to the team's systems, including the CRM, file flow, and communication channels
- Introduction to the tools and resources the team makes available to loan officers as they build a pipeline
- Guidance on how leads, referral sources, and past clients are tracked and followed up on inside the CRM
- Ongoing access to the team leader and other originators for questions as new files move through processing
The exact mechanics of compensation, licensing requirements, production expectations, or any other condition of joining Team Renato are determined by Renato Rodic and NEXA Lending directly. This page describes the structure of what is provided, not the terms under which any individual loan officer is brought on. Anyone considering joining the team should ask Renato Rodic and NEXA Lending directly for the current specifics that apply to their situation.
Who This Onboarding Structure Is For
This kind of setup tends to matter most to loan officers who are either new to the industry and need infrastructure they do not yet have, or experienced originators who are moving teams and do not want to rebuild their systems from zero. In both cases, having a CRM already part of onboarding under an established team leader like Renato Rodic reduces the operational overhead of a transition and lets a loan officer get back to originating loans sooner.
Arizona Context
Team Renato operates in Arizona under the NEXA Lending umbrella, which means loan officers joining the team are working within a licensed mortgage lending environment subject to state and federal mortgage regulations. The onboarding structure, including the CRM, sits inside that regulated environment. Specifics about licensing, compliance training, and how the team supports loan officers through those requirements are best confirmed directly with Renato Rodic or NEXA Lending, since those details can change and are not something this page will speculate on.
