subject: Mortgage Outsourcing Tips - Shifting Your Loan Origination To A Third Party [print this page]


Mortgage outsourcing does not have to be difficult even if you have not tried it previously. There are numerous outsourced companies waiting to support you. The truth is that outsourcing is simpler than hiring a new employee. The kind of screening tasks you must do to pick the right company for the job is simpler compared to hiring fresh graduates. What's more, outsourced mortgage processors are very experienced and competent in their work. There is nothing to worry about as long as you have picked the right mortgage outsourcing service provider.

There is one problem or difficulty you are likely to face though. Like many other owners of mortgage companies, transitioning might be challenging. Shifting a huge responsibility like mortgage outsourcing to a third party can make anyone fret. Some entrepreneurs avoid it for fear that the outsourced contractor would steal their customers. Others are unable to plan the scope of the services they want rendered. There are all kinds of anxieties business owners go through prior to selecting a mortgage outsourcing contractor to form a contract with. In order to have a smooth transition, you can do the following simple things.

First, take enough time to determine and define the scope of services you want rendered. After planning, call the mortgage outsourcing company you have found and discuss the tasks with it. If you already have a manual that is usually followed by your internal processors, you may send it over to the external mortgage processor. Then ask the processor to ask you questions if something in the information you have shared with it is unclear. If everything between you is clear, the next step would be to implement contact points. During the loan origination process, something complicated could arise.

With the most appropriate contact methods ready, your mortgage outsourcing firm can call you immediately. So far you have the scope of the services to be rendered ready and have also established the contact methods. From this point on you want to provide access to your loan origination systems (LOS). This will include a username and password that your outsourced service provider can use to access your company's LOS. At this point your transitioning process would be over and successful. The selected team is good to go. Even so, do not expect them to be very productive in the first day. Giving your new processors time to get familiar with your system is greatly recommended.

It is always advisable to choose large outsourced firms to be sure of speedy delivery. Furthermore, large mortgage outsourcing companies have many experts who have dealt with simple and complex loan origination systems. There is no way that one of these organizations is going to take too long to understand your system. It is also important to make sure that you are not being overcharged by a given external contractor. Prior to doing all the things discussed above, make sure that you have truly selected the most suitable service provider. You can use the internet and all its resources to locate a reputable and experienced loan processor in your country.
