The resulting estimation of cost-of-repairs is also part of the Loan Modification and Short Sale proposals. This makes your proposals even more attractive for approval by the Lender since you are demonstrating with details what is needed to be done/fixed in the property.

 

This new set of features include a complete default Cost-of-Repairs catalog (pre-loaded with default entries) that you can update based on your needs:

 

 

This list of default repairs is applied to each case and can easily be changed according to each Case's requirements, you can add, delete or change entries including the total cost of repair per entry. The screen will then summarize all the entries and the total cost of repairs will be included in the Short Sale and the Loan Modification Proposals.

Processing Center Edition (PCE) - Groups of Document Templates:

 

A complete set of features that enables Processing Centers to create Remote Offices, Branches or Independent Loan Modification Companies is now available. With this Processing Center Edition (PCE), users can easily configure groups of documents (templates) available "per Branch Office" which allows the use of different Company names, contact information, logos, etc.

 

The PCE offers the opportunity of specifying the level of access to the different cases "per user" like "own cases", "users group", "branch office" or "all branches". This feature also allows the Administrator to create Branch and General Managers that can oversee the processes.

 

If your Company has Branch Offices or is processing Loan Modifications and Short Sales for Referring Companies, this set of new features is ideal for you; it offers all the opportunities needed to manage your distributed pipeline with enhanced data access security and flexibility.

 

Users setup: the new User's screen allows the Administrator to associate users to Branch Offices and at the same time, each Branch Office may contain multiple Users Groups, this offers the opportunity of controlling access to cases by Group/Branch.

 

 

Data access setup: The following screen shows the different levels of data access to cases. This can be easily setup per User from the Users module:

 

 

Document Grouping: The following screen shows how document templates can be grouped by Branch or Referring Office. This allows users to categorize documents making them unique "per Branch", offering more control and flexibility.

 

 

Automatic Document filtering: Based on the Branch Office that each Case belongs to, the system will automatically show only the documents associated to the related Branch. Only Users that are General Managers or the Administrator will be able to filter documents of other Branches or show all the documents. This enhanced document grouping and automatic filtering allows Administrators to manage mid to large size Companies more efficiently.

 

 

Branch catalog: Based on your own needs, you can create an unlimited number of Branch Offices with detailed information.
