Performance Rating Objective (Pro)

With Pro Rankings, You Are In Control Of Your Turn Times

UWM’s industry-leading tools and technology can help you build your business by increasing your efficiency. Our Personal Rating Objective (PRO) Rankings program puts you in control by rewarding you with faster turn times the more efficient you are.

At the beginning of each month, you will earn a PRO Ranking status that is based on your actions in the prior month — a combination of two categories: 1. Your average number of underwriting touches; and 2. Your total LO Partner Points earned based on your usage of UWM products, tools and technologies.

We’ll assign a score for each of these two categories (see the scoring key here), then combine them for a total PRO Score that will place you in one of three groups for that month: PRO Elite, PRO Plus or PRO Basic. Your PRO Ranking will be based on your previous month’s PRO Score. Here’s a scoring breakdown:

  PRO Elite PRO Plus PRO Basic
  PRO Score of 70+ PRO Score of 50-69 PRO Score of 49 or lower
  Initial UW Conditions Initial UW Conditions Initial UW Conditions
Conventional 1 1 2 1 2+ 1+
FHA 1 1 2 1 2+ 1+
Jumbo 1 1 2 1 2+ 1+
USDA 1 1 2 1 2+ 1+
VA 1 1 2 1 2+ 1+

Your PRO Score will be updated on a daily basis. However, your PRO Ranking and your corresponding turn times will only be updated at the beginning of each month based on the previous month.

More About LO Partner Points And Underwriting Touches

You can earn LO Partner Points in a variety of ways, some of which are monthly, quarterly, yearly or one-time-only things — and there are numerous ways to redeem your points.
