NEXA Lending Develops Servicing-Aligned Income Program For LOs
The independent mortgage brokerage plans a phased rollout beginning as early as July 2026, giving affiliated originators a new pathway to recurring servicing-related revenue
NEXA Lending, one of the nation's largest independent mortgage brokerages, is developing a new program to provide loan originators with a compliant pathway to participate in recurring income tied to the long-term performance of loans they originate. The initiative is scheduled to begin rolling out as early as July 2026 and centers on a separately structured servicing platform the company states is in late-stage development.
"This initiative reflects a long-term vision we have been working toward for several years," Mike Kortas, chief executive officer of NEXA Lending, said. "Our focus is on creating a structure that responsibly expands opportunity for loan originators while remaining fully aligned with compliance, licensing, and investor guidelines."
Bridging Origination And Servicing
Mortgage servicing rights have traditionally been retained by lenders and institutional investors, generating recurring cash flow that mortgage professionals have not had a structural mechanism to share. NEXA's model aims to introduce a new framework that increases transparency and alignment between origination and servicing within the broker channel.
The program includes three primary components. A servicing-aligned income structure would allow eligible originators to participate in recurring revenue tied to loan performance, subject to regulatory requirements that vary by jurisdiction and investor guidelines. An enhanced data component would provide participating originators greater visibility into servicing-related information on their originated loans, which the company states is intended to support long-term client engagement. A proprietary technology platform would serve as the centralized interface for access and reporting.
NEXA stated all components are being designed in coordination with legal, compliance, and regulatory frameworks.
"This is not about disrupting the system — it is about evolving responsibly within it," Kortas said. "We are committed to building something that benefits loan originators while upholding the integrity of the mortgage process."
Phased Rollout
The company plans to introduce the program in phases, with initial adoption focused internally before any broader expansion. NEXA indicated that additional features are expected following the initial launch as the platform matures and feedback is incorporated.
The company did not disclose the specific legal structure underpinning the program, the revenue-sharing arrangement, or how participation would be structured across different licensing and investor requirements. These details are expected to emerge as the platform approaches its target launch date.
