OpenClose Solutions (West Palm Beach, Fla.), developers of Web-based,
mortgage lending software, announced at MBA’s
Annual Technology in Mortgage Banking Conference & Expo that it exceeded
the 55,000 customer mark. This includes users of OpenClose, a
single-source-code, end-to-end automated mortgage system, and Decision
Assist, a loan pricing and automated underwriting system.
“Growing from 30,000 to more than 55,000
customers since 2006 is evidence that the industry needs an affordable,
end-to-end LOS that covers origination, secondary, underwriting, and
closing,” said Rob Pommier, senior vice
president for OpenClose Solutions. “The
flexibility and stability that comes from a .NET Web-based system gives
lenders of any size access to the same technologies enjoyed by the
industry’s largest lenders –
at a price they can afford.”
OpenClose automates a lender’s back-end
operations from origination to closing in one system. The software,
which is a Web-based .NET system, includes support for underwriting,
robust core banking operations, closing, post-closing, secondary
marketing, funding, shipping and reporting. The software is accessible
by any lender with an Internet connection, allowing wholesale and retail
lenders to use the system with originators nationwide.
In addition to the OpenClose LOS, the company also offers lenders a
product guideline, pricing and decisioning engine. The program gives
lenders a powerful tool to keep up with the rapidly changing investor
guidelines in the industry, price the loans and make automated decisions
on the loans. Decision Assist also enables lenders to secure
underwriting through Fannie Mae’s Desktop
Underwriter (DU) or Freddie Mac’s Loan
Prospector (LP) to assist in underwriting. Decision Assist, is available
within OpenClose or as a stand-alone installation.
“As lenders look to streamline their internal
processes to shorten the time spent on loan files, OpenClose meets their
needs with a single-source-code, end-to-end system,”
said Pommier. “OpenClose is there to help
lenders, no matter the size or lending environment of the lender,
automate every task in the life of the loan from open to close.”
