4. Section 494.001(18), Florida Statutes, defines ‘loan originator’ as:
[A]n individual who, directly or indirectly, solicits or offers to solicit a
mortgage loan, accepts or offers to accept an application for a mortgage
loan, negotiates or offers to negotiate the terms or conditions of a new or
existing mortgage loan on behalf of a borrower or lender, or negotiates or
offers to negotiate the sale of an existing mortgage loan to a noninstitutional
