Check both the person and the company
Washington DFI directs consumers to the relevant licensing resources, including NMLS Consumer Access for mortgage providers. Compare the names and identifiers with the professional’s written disclosures. Washington DFI — Verify a license ↗
Review the current record
Look for the jurisdictions and status shown in the public record and ask questions about any mismatch. A number printed on a website is an identifier, not by itself proof of current authorization for your transaction. This page does not certify a live license status.
Know which service you are discussing
Mortgage Lending Group LLC identifies its company NMLS as 1157983; Enrique Pelayo Jr’s individual NMLS is 131435. Mortgage and real estate services have different company roles and licensing systems. Ask who will provide the particular service you need.
PUT IT INTO PERSPECTIVE
An example, not an offer
Example workflow: search the individual’s identifier, then the company’s identifier, and compare the state authorization and relationship shown in the records. Save the date you checked rather than assuming an old screenshot remains current.
