EARN EXTRA MONEY WHILE WORKING ON YOUR OWN SCHEDULE
Gateway Reverse Mortgage Group located in St. Louis, Missouri is looking for
marketing representatives to secure leads to those who could benefit from a
reverse
mortgage.
A reverse mortgage is not right for most seniors age 62 and above. However, when
it is
a correct option, it can be a life altering event.
Most seniors and their children are not fully informed with correct information
as to
what a reverse mortgage is and how it can be a benefit to those in need of extra
money
each month.
That is why we are seeking the services of retired teachers, who can teach as
well as
prospect for those in need of this product.
Compensation is based upon those leads that turn into sales. You will set your
own
schedule.
