Mortgage Coach and ReverseVision team up to help consumers compare ‘forward’ and reverse mortgage financing options

IRVINE, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Mortgage Coach, a borrower conversion platform empowering mortgage lenders to educate borrowers with interactive presentations that model home loan performance over time, today announced an integration with ReverseVision, a subsidiary of Constellation Mortgage Solutions, Inc., the leading national provider of Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) and private reverse mortgage sales and origination technology. The integration enables lenders to produce a Reverse Total Cost Analysis (TCA), an interactive presentation that allows loan originators to give consumers side-by-side comparisons of how reverse mortgages perform against forward mortgages over the lifetime of the loan.

According to the National Reverse Mortgage Lenders Association (NRMLA), consumers age 62 and above comprise a significant share of the mortgage market, holding $10.1 trillion in home equity. Yet, HECM and private reverse mortgages, specifically designed to meet the unique financial circumstances of seniors, are rarely presented as options, often due to lender unfamiliarity with the programs.

Mortgage Coach's Reverse TCA enables loan originators to better serve clients with confidence by helping them evaluate whether a forward or reverse mortgage is best suited to meet their homeownership and financial goals. Designed to educate consumers about the conditions of reverse mortgages and illustrate unique features such as flexible disbursement options, the Reverse TCA serves to strengthen borrower trust in loan originators while empowering them with a more comprehensive understanding of their financial options.

Consumers can easily share Reverse TCA presentations with financial advisors and family members via text and email, which allows those involved in the long-term care of borrowers to feel informed and confident.

"For the first time ever, the Reverse TCA is making it possible for tens of thousands of expert forward mortgage advisors to easily, accurately and compliantly compare forward and reverse mortgage options side-by-side," said Mortgage Coach President Joe Puthur. "The solution strengthens lender relationships with qualified clients by modeling home financing options designed for their stage in life while helping loan officers advise clients on the mortgage solution that is right for them."

"This new partnership with Mortgage Coach opens doors for forward mortgage lenders to drive new undiscovered loan revenue and profitability by leveraging the surging home equity market via HECM mortgages," said Stephen Ryczek, president of Constellation Mortgage Solutions. "Lenders can provide an equity loan that provides seniors with a more comfortable retirement without the financial stress of monthly loan repayment."

"For many years, Finance of America Mortgage loan originators have embraced Mortgage Coach TCAs to visually educate our borrowers about all forward mortgage options, helping them select the loan that serves them best from our diverse mortgage product lineup," said Graham Fleming, president of Finance of America. "Similarly, Finance of America has long relied on ReverseVision. With this new integration, we can now uniquely illustrate any reverse mortgage option to help our senior clients flexibly leverage record home equity as they age in place. We look forward to showcasing our full product set, which includes reverse mortgages, to all eligible borrowers, ensuring they receive the best loan program for their overarching homeownership and financial goals."

CLEARWATER, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Florida's Best Reverse Mortgage Company, a Clearwater based reverse mortgage firm, has announced the launch of a new interactive website: www.FloridasBestReverse.com.

The website is also bursting with reverse mortgage information.

"The speed and power of technology is amazing these days. Our goal was to find a way to get information into the hands of folks in a manner that is simple, easy to understand, and fast," Said Brian Correa, President of Florida's Best Reverse Mortgage Company.

"With that in mind, we created an interactive tool on our homepage that can quickly answers the equity question all potential borrowers ask: how much money do I qualify for?" he said.

ReverseVision Unveils New Tech Strategy with Major Platform Updates and Brand Transformation at 2019 MBA Annual Conference

SAN DIEGO, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- ReverseVision, the leading provider of Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) and private reverse mortgage sales and origination technology, today announced its transformation as an API-enabled flexible reverse lending platform, unveiling a new logo as part of its revised mission and rebranding.

ReverseVision technology supports more reverse mortgage transactions than all other systems combined. Its revised approach and associated system updates reflect ReverseVision's commitment to evolving platform functionality and equipping every lender-forward and reverse-with tools to easily integrate HECM and private reverse mortgages into the loan evaluation, sales and origination process for every applicable senior borrower.

"The ReverseVision platform is transforming to enable a broader range of implementations matching lenders' business models. We are enabling all lenders to meet borrowers where they are in life," said ReverseVision Vice President of Sales and Marketing Wendy Peel. "Our revised API-enabled platform offers an operationally pragmatic approach to reverse home equity products."

"By providing open APIs that accelerate connectivity with all mortgage lending and retirement planning systems, we are powering greater integration and use of reverse lending in the mortgage ecosystem. New technology partnerships with leading digital mortgage firms will greatly expand presentation and demand for reverse lending. We seek to put tools in the hands of every lender that wants to create borrowers for life with a comprehensive Generational Lending strategy," added Peel.

Initial system capabilities provided by the revised platform include:

* Loan Import API
The development of a loan import API enables any system to programmatically create and prepopulate a reverse loan file within ReverseVision Exchange (RVX). Common system sources include customer relationship management (CRM) systems, point-of-sale solutions, forward loan origination system (LOS) or other third-party software. The loan import API saves LOs from retyping information into multiple systems by automatically importing relevant borrower data fields into RVX at the touch of a button.

* Streamlined product selection within RVX
An update to ReverseVision Administrator (RVA) simplifies the loan program selection menu, improving the loan selection process for LOs.

* Simplified attachments and docs packaging
Available in 2020 ReverseVision users will be able to build a list of documents to be attached to a loan via a single request, significantly reducing the time it takes to attach multiple documents to a loan file.

* Comparison Calculator API
Due to the popularity of RVSA's Comparison Calculators, ReverseVision will release an accompanying API in 2020. The Comparison Calculator API will allow lenders to place ReverseVision's acclaimed Comparison Calculators into their own point-of-sale solution, LOS, CRM, website or mobile app, to provide borrowers and LOs with a visually interactive tool for comparing HECMs and private reverse loans against home equity lines of credit (HELOCs) and traditional first- and second-lien mortgages.

These capabilities are made possible by an all new cloud computing based platform that operates in concert with the classic core RVX origination system. The new architecture enables significantly more flexibility for interaction with other systems and improved scalability while retaining comprehensive reverse origination features. The approach avoids the need for lenders to implement an all new system to exploit a growing set of integrated capabilities. In turn, ReverseVision customers can exploit these new APIs for internal integration and development efforts.

"HECM and private reverse programs have undergone massive transformations and so has our technology," said ReverseVision President and CEO John Button. "ReverseVision's improved capacity for technology coexistence will help all lenders meet borrowers where they are in life and better serve the unique financial needs of senior customers."

ReverseVision's updated visual identity is accompanied by the new tagline, "Rethink. Remortgage. Retire." Additionally, product logos for RVX, ReverseVision Sales Accelerator (RVSA), ReverseVision Database (RVDB), ReverseVision Pro Services (RVPS) and ReverseVision University (RVU) have been refreshed to reflect the rebrand.
