Build With The Best

Work alongside professionals committed to growth, mastery, and real results

If you’re like most loan officers, you got into this business because you wanted to help people with likely the largest purchase of their lives. And while you’re at it, make some good money to provide for you and your family.

And though you’ve seen some success, you KNOW there is more you’re able to accomplish. However, the companies you might have worked for all seem to have fatal flaws that limit your ability to help more people (and to be frank, make more money for you and your family). And what fatal flaws am I referring to? Well, to name a few: higher interest rates, lower compensation, and too-tight underwriting typically rise to the top of the list.

I’m DJ Christofferson, and I know how this feels. I’ve been a loan officer since the end of 2009 and got fed up with those same fatal flaws. To be blunt: I was tired of selling higher rates. I was tired of getting paid a small fraction of the margin. I was tired of battling uptight underwriters.

So I started searching for a company that would do things differently, and 7 years ago, I found NEXA Lending. With NEXA, I have the highest compensation in the industry, access to the lowest rates in the industry (because you CAN have both high comp and low rates), the most flexible underwriting I’ve ever seen, and control over my success. In fact, with NEXA’s platform, I became one of the Top 0.5% of producing loan officers in the country, and I’d like to introduce you to the same platform that has been life-changing for me.

So schedule a call, and let’s talk about how we can help you meet your goals.

Hello! I'm DJ Christofferson!

Executive Partner

After being downsized in 2007, DJ shifted from corporate America into real estate and ultimately found his true lane in mortgages. He built his production on one core principle: be the kind of partner to Realtors he wished loan officers had been for him. Be valuable.

That philosophy propelled him into the Top 1 percent of loan originators nationally and opened the door to coaching LOs across the country. His work has helped originators generate tens of millions in additional commissions, driven billions in added production for companies, and supported the growth of multiple high-performing branches and teams.

Today, DJ coaches loan officers, branch leaders, and organizations on how to scale through systems, modern marketing, and operational excellence. His focus is simple and proven: build value, build leverage, build growth.

What Our Agents Are Saying...

"NEXA has amplified my business times a million. It's honestly hard for me to keep up at times with the growth, but I find ways to delegate and continue growing. NEXA allows me to keep more money while providing more support. NEXA gives me access to virtually every loan program known to mankind, across 48 different states. There are very few deals that I ever have to turn away. NEXA has also allowed me to keep my own branding and operate freely with no outside pressure to send most of my loans to only 1 or 2 lenders."

“NEXA provided me a platform that let me build my business, my way. And that freedom has helped me become one of the highest-producing loan officers in the country.”

- Derek M. (326 units, 2025)

“NEXA Lending has been such a blessing to me and my business. The platform of NEXA has allowed me to build a very niche business due to all the products and lenders we have to offer. My business is mainly DSCR/Hard Money/NON-QM. I have so many options which allow me to find loans for my investors to meet their needs. have a product for everyone and can meet them where they are. The community and help that I have received has been the best part of it all, everyone is always willing to lend a hand.”

- Holly N. (217 units, 2025)

“I’ve been with Nexa Lending (formerly Nexa Mortgage) since 2019, and it’s hands-down the best lender I’ve ever worked for in my career. They offer access to over 270 approved wholesale lenders—more than any other company in the industry—which dramatically boosts productivity and approval rates on every deal. The compensation is unmatched: they pay more than competitors, provide the best pricing I’ve ever seen, and give multiple ways to maximize earnings so I make way more money here than anywhere else. If you take full advantage of everything Nexa has to offer, you can truly thrive and earn six figures without breaking a sweat.”

- Kurt G. (231 units, 2025)

“NEXA has given me true freedom as a loan officer. The broker model, product access, and compensation flexibility allow me to structure solutions that actually fit my clients, not force them into a box. I’m able to grow my business without sacrificing integrity or transparency.”
