Did you know that for mortgage lenders, it takes an average of 43 hours to complete an order with a call center? Or that it takes 13 hours of manual labor to go through reports from The Work Number (TWN) to find the data you need? Did you also know that Truv can make both of those tasks instant?
The Issue
Mortgage lenders need access to accurate and real-time data to make more informed lending decisions. But as the examples above show, collecting the necessary data to assess credit risk is time-consuming, not to mention expensive (and only getting more so). At the same time, borrowers demand a seamless origination and approval process that doesn’t involve the tedious process of uploading documents.
There’s also fraud, which can be a huge issue if someone is uploading a paystub rather than sourcing it from a payroll database. Unfortunately, traditional providers are often unable to verify payroll. If you send 100 applicants to one of the traditional providers, only around 35 of them will be verified, and the other 65 will have to manually send pay stubs and other documents. Not only are pay stubs easy to forge, but there’s also the risk of synthetic or identity fraud. If not caught, the lender would be underwriting a loan that can’t be serviced.
With Truv, mortgage lenders can make better lending decisions with accurate, verified and real-time access to consumer-permissioned income and employment data.
