GoHighLevel for mortgage brokers
GoHighLevel for mortgage brokers, set up by a Certified Admin
Rob Eason, a HighLevel Certified Admin, and his team built GoHighLevel (GHL) for a commercial mortgage brokerage that was leaving a separate CRM and email tool. Facebook lead-form leads now land in a lending pipeline, the owner hears about each one by email and text, and the follow-up talks only about the loan the borrower asked for. Borrower documents never go into HighLevel.
Jobs we set up
What HighLevel handles for a brokerage
Each job page walks through the build and says where it stops.
Lead-form speed to lead
Each Facebook lead opens an opportunity on its ad's smart list, the owner gets an email and a text, and the first reply goes out in the owner's words.
See Lead-form speed to leadLoan program follow-up
A 30-day follow-up that keeps every lead on its own loan product, with an AI call step and the pre-qualification link.
See Loan program follow-upTexting approval for a lending brand
We registered texting for a commercial lending brokerage. The brand and the campaign were both approved, and texting is live.
Chat and voice AI on the lending line
Chat AI plus inbound and outbound voice AI, published with the build and adjusted after the owner's own feedback.
Why it fits
Where HighLevel sits next to your loan system
Your loan origination system (LOS) keeps the loan. It is the record from application to close: the file, the credit pull and the documents. HighLevel works the stretch before that. It catches the lead, tells the owner, makes first contact and keeps following up until the borrower uses the pre-qualification link. In the phase we delivered, that one link was the entire hand-off into the loan system. HighLevel does not create the loan file and does not pull credit.
The pipeline follows that split. It runs eight stages, from New Lead to Terms Requested. The first four move on their own. The later ones move by hand, because a file's real status lives in the loan system and the broker's team is the one looking at it.
Lending ads come with targeting rules. Meta has advertisers in the US, or reaching people there, declare housing and financial products and services ads as a special ad category. Meta's developer documentation says that in those categories lookalike audiences are unavailable, ages are generally fixed at 18 through 65+, a specific gender can't be picked, location must cover at least a 15-mile radius, and ZIP codes aren't supported. On our side, smart lists are named for the ad a lead came from, never in a way that sorts borrowers by income or credit. This describes rules; it is not legal advice.
Sensitive borrower data has one home, and it is not HighLevel. Social Security numbers, credit reports and bank statements stay out of contact notes, AI prompts and marketing fields. HighLevel keeps the pipeline, the follow-up and an upload link. The documents sit in the lender's own encrypted, US-region system or in the loan system, with access granted by role.
Services used
Setups a brokerage build draws on
Texting registration is filed early, because every text in the follow-up waits on it.
How a setup runs
From the first call to a working lead path
A 1:1 with Rob
Thirty minutes on your HighLevel account. Rob asks which loan products you write, who runs your ads and where your loan files live today.
A plan you approve word for word
Every email, text, owner alert, AI prompt and knowledge-base answer is written out in one plan document before anything is built. Wording you already send to borrowers goes in exactly as you wrote it.
The build, then the evidence
We build inside your own account from the approved plan. At handover you get a QA report with evidence for each part, screenshots included, from the pipeline stages to the AI agents.
Changes after launch
Ask for a change and you hear the verdict before any work starts: either a fix inside the scope you approved, or new scope.
