Zippy was founded with one mission: to make getting a loan for a manufactured home simple, fast, and fully online. We believe modern manufactured homes are affordable, well‑built, eco‑friendly, and stylish, but finding a lender who understands this market can be challenging. That’s why Zippy focuses exclusively on manufactured home loans, offering a seamless, digital experience.

Headquartered in Dallas, TX, with an office in Tempe, AZ, Zippy provides home loans and insurance to manufactured home buyers throughout the United States. Our remote‑first team is spread across cities like Dallas, Houston, Knoxville, Omaha, Philadelphia, Phoenix, and several other states and cities. Backed by institutional investors, we offer competitive pay, stock options, and excellent benefits. At Zippy, we pride ourselves on our commitment to finance happiness through the power of home.

We are dedicated to enhancing consumers' financial outcomes and tackling the affordable housing crisis through cutting‑edge technology and innovative solutions.

The Dealer Guide is primarily focused on managing and strengthening client relationships, educating clients on Zippy's loan processes and technology, and ensuring clear communication of process updates. A significant part of the role involves driving revenue growth by increasing loan applications and funding from clients, while also identifying and communicating any growth barriers to leadership. This position requires diligent performance tracking, particularly in market share metrics, and meticulous management of client data in Salesforce.

A profound knowledge of Zippy's loan processes is essential, along with the ability to advocate for clients' interests within the organization. The Dealer Guide is a critical in bridging the gap between clients and Zippy's internal teams, ensuring both client satisfaction and business success.
