What are the possible consequences for the licensed LO, the unlicensed LO, the consumer, the mortgage broker, and the lender? 

If you were the consumer on a transaction like this, would you want to know about this sort of fee-splitting arrangement? How much would you say would be a reasonable amount to pay the unlicensed LO and the licensed LO…if YOU were the consumer?
