Piecemeal Automation

    In an article by Evelyn S. Wilks, she wrote,

    "Earlier office automation programs addressed only a piece of the pie. They sought to increase worker productivity by automating their activities - to automate people rather than functions . . . Automating only a part of the function may actually result in duplication of effort and a loss of productivity."

    "Joining the band in the automated workstation parade requires both commitment and stamina. The pace of the march is quickening and the music is constantly changing. The rewards are great and getting there sure is fun."

Automation by Crisis

    Most companies automate activities only when the task becomes a crisis. Management solves the crisis by adding another software package, which only automates that activity. Thus, many real estate departments are automated piecemeal.

    Solving the crisis involves purchasing another software package. This requires new training, another manual, another company to deal with, and another problem to solve if there is difficulty with the software.

    Then, when the crisis is solved, there is the problem of linking all the various pieces (software packages) together.

    Networks solve many problems of linking all the pieces together. The network still does not address the problem of another software package, another manual, another company to deal with, and no security.

    Security is a major concern. There is less security using software packages from multiple vendors linked together.

Useful Tools

    Calculator

    Calculator is designed to provide answers, information, and computations requested by borrowers.

    Use this option to compute what the mortgage payment would be, project the loan balance for a given period, compute daily interest figures, prepare amortization schedules, and calculate the APR on various loan types.

    Although not stored in memory, the information can be printed.

    Your staff could use this section several times a day.


    Best Loan for Me

    What I Can Pay allows the operator to enter basic loan information into the program to provide borrowers with a proposed loan amount they can afford.

    What Could I Afford provides borrowers with a general price range for a house they can afford. In addition, those who may anticipate or have an increase in income may want to know what they could afford. This program offers the loan originator the capability to do a what if scenario.

    Could I Qualify computes the ratios to determine if a borrower qualifies.


    Payment and Costs

      Use this option to compute an estimated monthly payment and projected loan costs. After the property county and state are selected, the program displays typical closing costs and escrow reserves and calculates the total payment (PITI) and APR.

      The results can be printed and given to a prospective borrower.



    Loan Comparison



      This selection is a tool for loan originators to visibly demonstrate to borrowers the difference in various loan products being offered or what the savings would be by increasing the monthly payment a few extra dollars .

      The program is designed for fixed rate loans with up to three variable options. The loans are compared showing the difference in the total interest to be paid over the term of the loan and initial cash required at time of closing.

      In addition to illustrating the different savings with the interest rate bought down with points and/or fees, the program can be used to demonstrate the savings if the term of the loan is different.


Loan Origination

    Loan Products

    WebApp Loans Offered displays the various types of loans currently being offered to borrowers through the WebApp software. There is no need for separate maintenance of current rates, discount points, etc.

    Loan Rate Sheet indicates the guidelines and loan products being offered by the company, and includes the points, fees, and costs.

    Since it is possible that not all loan products set up are designated to display in WebApp, this option separates the various types – WebApp Loans Offered and the Mortgage Office Loan Rate Sheet.



    EZApp/WebApp 24x7

      Serving your customers makes all the difference. In this age of increasing customer expectations, use WebApp for your real estate loan requests with faster service to your member/borrower.



      WebApp is a Web-based software package hosted by Mortgage Computer and easy to customize to your Web site. It is a 24x7 office for borrowers applying for a loan, to view products currently being offered, or to check what a payment would be or compare loan products for the best loan product.

    Processing provides document preparation, front-end tracking for application documents, overseeing commitments issued, underwriting, secondary market commitments, loan tracking, closed document tracking, accounting for all funds, quality control, reports, cash flow preparation, and management reports.

    Each option represents a function performed in the lending process. All selections are integrated and reside in one place where they can be accessed by everyone. There is never a need to re-enter or transfer data to other workstations.


    Construction

    Construction is a software program to account for proper disbursement of borrower funds and loan proceeds. It is used to control the disbursement of mortgage loan funds granted for new building purposes or extensive remodeling of already existing structures. It is more than merely a check-writing disbursement program.

    Costs can be monitored and compared to the cost breakdown and property inspections to assure funds are not advanced before the work is completed.

    This is a practical, workable program for construction loan disbursement.

Other Features

    Compliance Audit

    After all verifications have been received and the documents are in the file, the loan is ready to be reviewed by the underwriter.

    The selections included in Underwriting are used as the underwriter is reviewing the documentation received to approve the loan. This option provides all the information entered in the program for review by the underwriter in a systematic method.

    Fraud Detection option alerts the lender to possible false claims on the 1003 loan application.

    File Organization is to indicate the stacking order of the file. This selection is to be used to verify the file organization and that all documents are in the correct place and order in the file.

    Document Compliance selection is to set up what management wants the Quality Control Department to review and verify to assure the proper documentation is in the loan file. On the screen you have the option of indicating whether the documents are complete or missing.


    Audit Center

    This section is for the use of the quality control and auditing departments. It is designed so the reports from various functions are all in one section. The need to go from one package to another and in and out of menu selections is eliminated.
    • The Audit Center menu displays the reports available from all packages requested by auditors.


    • This feature makes it easy for your auditors (in-house or external) to print reports without interrupting employees.


    • The employee saves time by not having to show the auditor. Employees are not aware of what is being done by the auditor.
