Our Story

M|M University was developed for mortgage professionals by mortgage professionals. Mortgage Magnates and it’s sub-brand M|M University are strictly guided by the development needs of North American mortgage professionals. Owned and Operated solely as Mortgage Magnates Ltd, M|M University has zero ownership interest from brokerage houses, lenders or any other industry company. We take our status as the “Switzerland of mortgage professional training” very seriously and strictly adhere to our terms of service which include no recruiting between brands, brokerages or loan providers.
