Welcome to Loan Officer Freedom, the #1 podcast in the country for loan officers, hosted by Carl White.

In this episode, Carl sits down with Chris Kloc, a Chattanooga based loan officer who is just four years into the business and on pace to close roughly 175 loans in 2025. Chris shares his journey from being completely outside the mortgage industry to building a high performing, leveraged team and producing at a level most loan officers never reach.

Chris breaks down the simple principles that fueled his growth, including ruthless implementation, tracking daily activity, and shortening the gap between learning something proven and actually doing it. He explains how accountability, consistency, and being highly active and visible in the market drove both his purchase and refinance production.

The conversation also dives into team structure, buying back time, and why knowing your real job as a loan officer is critical once production starts to scale. Chris outlines how he built leverage around himself so he could stay focused on lead generation, consultations, and leadership.

If you are early in your career or stuck at a few loans a month and want a clear picture of what it really takes to scale quickly without burning out, this episode delivers practical lessons you can apply immediately.
