Top Functions To Outsource

Written by Dave Demster | May 11, 2021 2:40:37 AM

Our team at Verity is frequently asked what mortgage services and functions are the most suitable to outsource. Generally, those services include the origination and servicing functions that are not customer facing. Because we focus on all the behind the scenes functions, we enable our customers to focus on delivering a better customer experience and running their businesses more efficiently and profitably.  With that said, the major functions that a lender should consider outsourcing include:

Loan Origination Support

Use outsourcing to perform repetitive, time-consuming tasks under an SLA using our 24-hour operations centers to maximize efficiency and accuracy. A full suite of pre-set and customizable functions is available in the following areas and more:

1. Initial Disclosures - The outsource team performs pre-screening of the application and loan documents, orders initial quote, prepares loan estimate, generates and sends the disclosures package to stay within the three-day CFPB requirement.
2. Loan Setup - Review the AUS requirement, verify the income, credit, asset and other documents to determine the readiness for underwriting submission.
3. Underwriting Setup - Review AUS, provide calculated income, debt-to-income ratio analyzed asset, appraisal and title with prior approval/closing and funding conditions to your UW.
4. Closing Docs - Verify the information in LOS, prepare initial/final CD including the tolerance check, update required information in the LOS, and generate the closing docs for your closer.
5. Investor Submission/Shipping - Verity reviews the closing package for completeness and accuracy, then submits the loan to investors for purchase.

Quality Control Services

for pre-funding to post-closing quality checks.

HMDA Reporting

In-depth review of LAR for correctness, pricing analysis, side-by-side review of borrower files and HMDA-LAR for a comprehensive data integrity check.

Servicing and Default Management

Much like loan origination, servicing has many non-customer facing functions that Verity performs. Everything from loan boarding, payment processing, escrow management, investor reporting, and a full range of default management services.

Ellie Mae Encompass LOS Support

Many Encompass LOS users need additional support or can outsource many of the core LOS support functions at a much lower cost.
