With the mortgage market tightening, savvy loan officers are turning to Loanspark’s real estate lending platform to diversify, grow revenue, and say “yes” to more clients. From multifamily to construction to CPACE loans, we handle the heavy lifting so you can focus on closing bigger deals.

How Loanspark Empowers Loan Officers to Expand, Earn More, and Say “Yes” to More Clients

As mortgage professionals navigate a market hit by rising interest rates, inventory shortages, and tighter underwriting standards, the need to diversify has never been greater.

According to the Mortgage Bankers Association, mortgage origination volume is projected to drop to $1.64 trillion in 2025, down from a peak of over $4 trillion in 2021. Meanwhile, more than 50% of mortgage brokers report seeking new revenue streams to remain competitive in a shifting market (HousingWire, 2024).

That’s where Loanspark steps in—with a powerful investment-purpose real estate lending platform designed to help loan officers diversify, expand their earnings, and say yes to more clients without straying from their core business.

Why Investment Real Estate Lending Is a Win for Loan Officers

The demand for commercial, investment residential, and construction lending continues to rise—even as traditional mortgage volume contracts. In fact:

  • Commercial real estate lending demand is expected to grow by 8.5% in 2025, driven by industrial, multifamily, and mixed-use developments (Deloitte CRE Outlook).
  • Investment property purchases now account for 18% of all residential transactions, up from 13% pre-pandemic (NAR, 2024).
  • And CPACE (Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy) financing is gaining momentum, with over $3 billion deployed nationwide for energy-efficient upgrades and green building improvements (PACENation, 2024).

But many mortgage professionals lack access to the tools, lenders, and infrastructure needed to serve these clients effectively. That’s where Loanspark’s Business Lending as a Service (BLaaSTM) model shines.
