May was a record-setting month for CCI.

The program reached its largest funding month in history, with 48 funded loans totaling $16.6MM in volume.

But the bigger story is not just the number.

It is what the number represents.

Better-generated opportunities are creating more at-bats for NEO Advisors. NEO Advisors are turning those opportunities into meaningful borrower outcomes through guidance, strategy, and ex*****on.

That is where the model works.

Technology helps create access.
Advisors help create confidence.
Families get a clearer path forward.

This is what we mean when we talk about building a better mortgage experience. Not just faster. Not just more efficient. More human, more strategic, and more connected to the real goals behind homeownership.

Congratulations to every advisor, leader, and team member who helped make May a record month for CCI.

14 submissions later…

Still Refer/Ineligible.

This is the part of the mortgage process most people never see, but every experienced advisor knows too well.

The file does not always fail because the borrower is not qualified. Sometimes it fails because the solution is buried somewhere in the findings, guidelines, overlays, income structure, credit details, or loan strategy.

That’s where BetsyAI changes the game for NEO Advisors.

Instead of spinning in circles, resubmitting the same file, and hoping the next run produces a different answer, advisors can use BetsyAI to help identify what needs to change, where the issue may be, and how to move the file toward a better path.

Less guessing.
More clarity.
More time advising clients.

This is what happens when mortgage expertise meets technology built to support it.

NEO x Better

Most people want fast, easy, cheap, low friction.

But what they need is judgment.
Advice. Strategy. Stewardship.

Here’s the shift I think our industry has to make as AI shopping accelerates:

AI will handle the research.
Your job is the last mile: the moment where a family decides…

- Do we buy the home or do we walk?
- Which financing protects our future, not just our payment?
- What’s the right move for us, not for a rate sheet?

People shouldn’t have to choose:
Online + easy or local + valuable.
They should get both.

🤔 Question: What part of the “last mile” do you think matters most, decision confidence or strategy clarity?

A Top 20 ranking is meaningful, and we are grateful for the recognition.

But at NEO, production is only part of the story.

It tells you how much was done.
We care just as much about how it was done.

Performance is what a homebuyer feels when the process is clear.
It is what a referral partner sees when communication stays strong.
It is what an advisor brings when the market changes.

Rankings are finite.
Trust is not.

We are proud to be recognized in Scotsman Guide’s 2026 Top Mortgage Lenders rankings as a Top 20 Retail Mortgage Bank, and even more committed to the long game: Building a company known for advice, ex*****on, and relationships that last.

That is the kind of performance that matters.

After our AI webinar last month, one question came up more than any other:

“If AI starts handling more of the mortgage process, how do we stay relevant?”

I think that’s the wrong question.

The real question is this:

What happens when the transaction gets easy for everyone?

When speed becomes normal?
When every lender has similar tech?

Because the future won’t belong to the Mortgage Advisor who fills out paperwork the fastest.

It will belong to the Mortgage Advisor who creates value long after the loan closes.
That post-closing experience is becoming the new battleground.

On Thursday, June 18 at 12pm CST, I’m breaking down the new job description of the Mortgage Advisor of the future and what it takes to become truly indispensable in an AI-powered world.

RSVP via my link in bio and be sure to show up early!!

See you there.

Some people make an impact by doing more than what is required. Ricardo Perez is one of them.

His nomination reflects what the NEO ethos looks like in real life: strong communication, real care for clients, and a willingness to step in when it matters most.

Ricardo helps create a closing experience that feels clearer, smoother, and more supported for everyone involved. That kind of leadership makes a difference, and it does not go unnoticed.

We are proud to recognize Ricardo Perez as a NEO Ethos Change Maker.

Changing the mortgage industry starts with great people. Teammates who lead with purpose, serve with heart, and believe home financing should create clarity, confidence, and lasting impact.

That’s NEO Home Loans powered by Better.

For years the mortgage industry has acted like you have to choose:

1. A frictionless, fast, digital process
or
2. Strategic guidance from a financially literate Mortgage Advisor

That “either/or” is the problem.

Families we serve really don’t want or need a better app or a better advisor if it costs them additional years renting due to the premium.

What they really need is both, in one aligned experience.

That’s what our partnership with Better is designed to deliver:
🎯 A process that removes the busywork, lowers cost of fulfillment, allowing the advisor to do the most human work possible while still affordable.

Because to me… Speed is only impressive when it protects good decisions.

If you’re a Mortgage Advisor, here’s the question to sit with:
❓Where are you still forcing families to choose between convenience and confidence?

Quick correction to the way most people are framing AI in mortgage:

This isn’t a future that’s human OR AI.
It’s a future where the winners combine:

Human trust
Human strategy
Empathy
Leadership

With the speed, efficiency, and leverage of AI.

And here’s the part most Mortgage Advisors miss:

Families don’t care about your tech stack.
They care about clarity, lack of friction, confidence, and guidance from someone who actually has empathy and support.

That’s what we’re building.
AI isn’t the point.

AI creates space for you to do the most human, most valuable work in this business. At scale.

Audra McMahon said it LOUD and PROUD:

"If you can’t show me where my dollars are going, period… I can’t build my next chapter there."

Then she gave the simplest metaphor we’ve heard in a long time:

A utility bill.
Usage. Cost per usage. Total bill.

Clear inputs. Clear outputs.
No mystery. No “trust us.” No back-room math.

And when that transparency is real, something powerful happens...

- Audra passes it forward to her team in Kansas City.
- Everyone gets smarter.
The client gets more cost-effective outcomes.
- And the advisor can finally be proud of what they’re delivering.

Ryan and Audra even joked about it like this:

Ryan: "If I’m selling hot dogs but I don’t know the ingredients… I can sell them, but I’m not proud."

Audra’s response: "Whole boar. Single ingredient. No fillers."

Watch the full conversation with Audra on YouTube:

Question to reflect on...
Do you have “utility bill” clarity on your economics… or are you guessing?
