"Our commitment to innovation, integrity and transparency drives everything we do to help our clients achieve new levels of success."

Some of LPS' major accomplishments during the past year that contributed to its strength as a leading financial services provider include:

• Enhancements to LPS' Loan Quality Gateway, a proven, scalable technology platform. This platform supports both efficiency and compliance with investor, lender and service provider loan quality requirements through a 24/7 data exchange connected to a vast majority of the industry's service and solution providers. LPS Loan Quality Gateway enhancements during the past year are: 
  • Direct integration with the Uniform Collateral Data Portal (UCDP), which facilitates seamless electronic appraisal report submission to meet Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae requirements.
  • A new service to order Good Faith Estimate (GFE) data, which helps lenders more accurately quote loan fees and eliminates the need to maintain internal fee tables and cumbersome, manual calculations for GFE disclosures.

• Additional loan origination technology offerings, including a Web-enabled correspondent lending platform, a robust lead management solution and reverse mortgage product capabilities, through the acquisition of LendingSpace.
• The addition of Military Service Relief functionality to LPS' MSP loan servicing platform to help servicers better track and manage military service member loans protected under the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA). SCRA prohibits mortgage servicers from foreclosing on or seizing property from active-duty military personnel unable to meet their mortgage obligations.
• A new Industry Lien Matching Service through which mortgage servicers can match first and subordinate liens, then provide this vital data from one servicer to another to support co-modification efforts.
