Loan Officer Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a loan officer in Texas?
Residential mortgage loan originators in Texas must obtain an NMLS license through the Texas Department of Savings and Mortgage Lending, which requires completing pre-licensing education, passing the SAFE Mortgage Loan Originator Test, and passing a background and credit check. Consumer and commercial loan officers working for federally regulated banks register through NMLS instead of obtaining a state license. Most employers expect at least a bachelor's degree in finance, business, or a related field.
How much do loan officers make in Texas?
Loan officers in Texas earn a median of about $66,370 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $34,150 for the lowest 10% to over $135,280 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire loan officers in Texas?
Employers hiring loan officers in Texas right now include First Community Credit Union - Houston, TX, AmeriHome Mortgage Company, and Rocket Mortgage, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. Texas's large population and active real estate market mean both national banks and regional lenders maintain significant loan officer headcounts across the state's major metros.
Which Texas cities have the most loan officer jobs?
Dallas, Houston, and Austin have the most loan officer openings in Texas. Houston's size and diverse economy drive the highest volume of mortgage and commercial lending positions, while Dallas and its suburbs support a dense concentration of bank headquarters, credit unions, and mortgage companies that collectively account for a large share of statewide hiring.
Are there remote loan officer jobs in Texas?
Yes, and more than many financial roles, because licensed mortgage originators can often work clients entirely by phone, email, and e-signature. About 15% of loan officer openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of June 2026, reflecting how digitally the application and approval process now runs. Retail-branch roles and SBA commercial positions tend to remain in-person, while mortgage and consumer lending positions are the most likely to offer remote flexibility.
How can I get hired as a loan officer in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is joining a large Texas bank or mortgage company as a loan officer assistant or junior processor, roles that provide hands-on origination experience without requiring an existing client book. Employers like Wells Fargo, Frost Bank, and regional credit unions across Houston and Dallas regularly hire candidates willing to start in support roles. Completing your NMLS pre-licensing coursework before applying signals commitment and immediately expands the roles you can be considered for.
