LEHI, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- SimpleNexus (https://simplenexus.com/), developer of the leading homeownership platform for loan officers, borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, today announced SimpleNexus eClose now supports remote online notarization (RON), enabling lenders to efficiently conduct fully-digital eClosings.

SimpleNexus eClose brings together borrowers, lenders, settlement agents and notaries for a collaborative and efficient closing experience. Integrated eSign capabilities offer borrowers the modern convenience of signing eDocuments on any web-enabled device, including mobile phones. Intelligent workflows improve lender efficiency by automatically updating documents across all platforms and alerting lenders when actions have been completed. eClosing portal access for settlement agents more closely engages them in the process.

In a RON eClosing, or full eClose, all documents are eSigned and electronically notarized by a commissioned remote online notary via webcam. SimpleNexus has partnered with market-leading, MISMO RON standard certified remote online notarization provider Notarize to debut RON in its eClose environment. In the future, SimpleNexus will partner with additional RON vendors.

"Remote online notarization is rewiring the closing experience for the digital era, making it simple, more efficient, and secure to close from anywhere, any time. In all market conditions, consumers are clamoring for the technology that streamlines closing, and Notarize is thrilled to be on the SimpleNexus eClose platform to close that 'last mile' of the transaction to make full eClosings a reality," said Pat Kinsel, Notarize Co-Founder and CEO.

With the addition of RON to SimpleNexus eClose, lenders can provide borrowers with a fully digital, single sign-on homebuying experience from application to closing. Currently, 32 U.S. states allow full eClosings in which all loan closing documents are eSigned and remotely notarized. RON bills have been introduced in several other states and at the Federal level.

"SimpleNexus is committed to delivering lenders with a one-stop platform that seamlessly guides borrowers throughout the entire homeownership journey," said SimpleNexus President Cathleen Schreiner Gates. "The added capability of RON, which enables full eClose, gives lenders and borrowers the choice to make closing as digital as they want. In addition to improved borrower experience, full eClose offers lenders substantial return on innovation with improved operational efficiency, greater data integrity and faster delivery of loans to the secondary market."

To date, SimpleNexus empowers 300 mortgage lenders to "do more," by connecting its 34,000 active LO users with more than 3 million borrowers and 141,000 real estate partners to produce 13 million mortgages totaling more than $3 trillion in volume.

Embrace Home Loans Launching SimpleNexus Homeownership Platform for Its 300 Retail Mortgage Loan Officers in 2021

LEHI, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- Top-ranked mortgage lender Embrace Home Loans today announced plans to roll out SimpleNexus, the leading homeownership platform for loan officers (LOs), borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, to more than 300 retail mortgage LOs before the end of the year.

SimpleNexus is currently the mortgage industry's leading point-of-sale platform, serving more than 300 lenders across the United States. Embrace Home Loans is the first lender to leverage SimpleNexus in conjunction with Black Knight(r)'s Empower(r) loan origination system (LOS). Other unique aspects of the implementation include a new mobile disclosures integration with First American Docutech(r) and a first-of-its-kind feature that will allow borrowers to pay for appraisals in-app using a credit card.

"Embrace has been an amazing partner and has pushed us to extend SimpleNexus' already market-leading feature set. We can't wait to see how loan officers and borrowers respond to the improved experience," said SimpleNexus Founder and CEO Matt Hansen. "Moreover, this partnership could serve as a model for future Empower LOS users who would like to experience the benefits of SimpleNexus' end-to-end homeownership platform."

Embrace Home Loans was founded in 1983 as a consumer-direct lender headquartered in Middletown, Rhode Island, and has been steadily growing its retail origination channel since 2009. In addition to its consumer direct platform, the company currently employs more than 300 loan officers at branches along the East Coast. Embrace believes the new integration will empower its loan officers to provide even greater customer service, according to Customer Experience Director and Vice President Meghan Handy.

"We've been in business for 38 years, so we have a clear perspective on how to customize things for our team. We needed a solution that was LO-centric and pliable enough to let our team continue serving customers and Realtors in the way they prefer," said Handy. "SimpleNexus offers that kind of flexibility while at the same time equipping our LOs for success in the booming purchase market by transforming the way they work with borrowers and Realtors."

Embrace employees can expect a gradual phase-in of the SimpleNexus platform over the next several months. Handy expects her company will be delivering an improved customer experience - and seeing a measurable lift to loan volume - before the end of 2021.

SimpleNexus accelerates momentum in 2020 with one of eight U.S. mortgage loans passing through its homeownership platform

LEHI, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- SimpleNexus (https://simplenexus.com/), developer of the leading homeownership platform for loan officers (LOs), borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, today announced accelerated momentum in 2020 marked by expansive market growth and product innovation.

"The reason SimpleNexus continues to sweep the mortgage space is that it is the single-most complete homeownership journey platform for homebuyers and a relentlessly efficient lender tool," said Founder and CEO of SimpleNexus Matt Hansen. "From home search to application and from eClosing to securing homeowners insurance, SimpleNexus is truly a one-stop homeownership hub."

SimpleNexus has become one of the nation's fastest-growing firms, having ranked on the Inc. 5000 for three consecutive years and the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 for two consecutive years. The firm's 2020 growth was capped by a $108 million Series B funding round led by Insight Partners and supported by TVC Capital.

"SimpleNexus has established itself as a fast-paced innovator in the digital mortgage space," said TVC Capital Co-Founder and Managing Partner Jeb Spencer. "First it set the gold-standard for on-the-go usability and now it's defining what a seamless homeownership platform should be. We are excited to support the company as it blazes the trail to creating a harmonious homeownership journey."

SimpleNexus grew staff by 63% over the last 12 months as it worked to enhance its platform with dozens of new features designed to facilitate a more streamlined, "from anywhere" lending experience for all stakeholders in the mortgage lending process. For instance, last February saw the addition of Uniform Residential Loan Application (URLA)support and in-app review of Fannie Mae's Desktop Underwriter(r) (DU(r)) findings. July marked the release of SimpleNexus ConnectUs Chat, a messaging feature that supports real-time loan file collaboration between LOs, borrowers and real estate agents. In August, SimpleNexus debuted SimpleNexus eClosing, which enables hybrid and RON closings for purchase and refinance loans.

Also in 2020, an independent, third-party analysis conducted by MarketWise Advisors showed that lenders using SimpleNexus consistently produce more loans and spend less on per-loan operational expenses, receiving nine-times ROI from their spending on the platform. SimpleNexus maintains 98% customer retention, a rare feat in the SaaS world.

To date, SimpleNexus empowers 300 mortgage lenders to "do more," by connecting its 32,000 active LO users with more than 3 million borrowers and 141,000 real estate partners to produce 13 million mortgages totaling more than $3 trillion in volume.

PROVO, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- PhoneSoap proudly announces a 99.99% reduction of SARS-CoV-2 with its ExpressPro disinfection technology. According to a recent study conducted by the University of Tennessee Health Science Center, the PhoneSoap ExpressPro, a rapid UV disinfection device for cell phones, tablets, and other hard-to-clean hand-held items, resulted in a 99.99% reduction of SARS-CoV-2 during the 30-second cycle time.

PhoneSoap ExpressPro is a rapid UV disinfection device for busy work environments utilizing mobile devices such as cell phones, tablets, and other hard-to-clean hand-held items.

"We're extremely pleased with the outcome of this third-party SARS-CoV-2 study and recognize how critical it is to break the chain of infection," stated Wesley LaPorte, Co-Founder and CEO of PhoneSoap. "Whatever your hands touch, your hand-held devices collect and that includes this deadly virus which is known to survive for extended periods of time on common surfaces. We refer to these mobile devices as the third hand you never wash, but PhoneSoap's ExpressPro provides an easy and fast way to disinfect them and help stop the spread of infection."

Dan Barnes, PhoneSoap Co-founder and President, expressed "Dramatic reductions in infection-causing microorganisms such as the 99.99% with the SARS-Co-V-2 virus along with a 99.999% reduction of MRSA and 99.9% of C. difficile, allow our healthcare, retail and other customers to mitigate the risk of transmission in their respective businesses.

ABOUT PHONESOAP:

PhoneSoap was invented by cousins Dan Barnes and Wes LaPorte after they watched a TV report that claimed cell phones were contaminated by fecal matter. They conducted their own tests, their results proved that the average phone is 18 times dirtier than a public bathroom. After appearing on season six of Shark Tank in 2015 and making a deal with QVC's Lori Greiner, PhoneSoap took off. In addition to ExpressPro, the company has since developed new versions of its classic PhoneSoap, including Wireless and HomeSoap versions.

SimpleNexus Secures $108M in Series B Funding to Transform the Homeownership Journey into a Seamlessly Connected Experience

LEHI, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- SimpleNexus (https://simplenexus.com/), developer of the leading homeownership platform connecting loan officers, borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, has received a follow-on investment of $108 million in Series B funding led by global venture-capital and private-equity firm Insight Partners.

Founded in 2011, SimpleNexus is one of the fastest-growing technology companies in North America. Company President Cathleen Schreiner Gates credits 2020's four consecutive quarters of record-setting revenue growth to rapid, enthusiastic adoption of SimpleNexus' solutions by banks, credit unions and independent mortgage lenders across the United States. The capital infusion from Insight Partners will help SimpleNexus maintain this growth trajectory as it continues to transform the mortgage industry by seamlessly connecting the homeownership journey.

"SimpleNexus is systematically tearing down the technology barriers that gave the mortgage process a reputation for being disjointed, arduous and slow," said Schreiner Gates. "First, we created a best-in-class mobile toolset that delivers hundreds of thousands of lender referrals each year by bringing together consumers, real estate agents and loan officers from the point of thought. Then we perfected the loan application with features like our mobile mortgage disclosures, which empowers borrowers to finish in hours a task that normally takes days. With the support of Insight Partners, we will build on the momentum we received from bringing to market the best eClosing experience lenders and consumers have ever seen. Our vision is to hone the entire home buying journey from the borrower's first contact with a Realtor to the closing table and beyond."

The $108 million capital raise follows Insight Partners' initial investment of $20 million in SimpleNexus and underscores the firm's continued confidence in the Utah-based tech firm. Insight Partners has invested in more than 400 investments and has supported more than 50 software ScaleUps in the real estate and fintech verticals alone.

"SimpleNexus' innovative solutions continue to change the mortgage industry in exciting ways," said Jeff Lieberman, Managing Director at Insight Partners. "CEO Matt Hansen and the SimpleNexus team are executing at a remarkable pace on their long-term vision of streamlining the path to homeownership. The SimpleNexus platform continues to strengthen, addressing key industry pain points while preserving lender flexibility, efficiency and simplicity. We are thrilled to support the company's continued growth and excited by the partnerships they are creating to deliver a seamless homeownership journey."

SimpleNexus announced one such strategic partnership in November, a collaboration with Progressive® (NYSE: PGR) that makes it easy for borrowers to secure a home insurance policy in the same app they use to complete other loan-related tasks.

SimpleNexus' award-winning homeownership platform plays a role in 13% of all home loans originated in the U.S. SimpleNexus serves a user base of more than 29,000 loan originators and 123,000 real estate agents and more than 3 million borrowers.

Aeroscape’s Snow and Ice Management Fleet is Ready to Take on Winter

Midvale, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- The rest of the year, Aeroscape is an award-winning property maintenance and landscape design company, but during the winter, Aeroscape becomes your commercial snow removal specialists ready to take on even the biggest winter storms.

Aeroscape Invests in Snow and Ice Management Equipment

Aeroscape has made a significant investment in its snow and ice management equipment over the last several years, including purchasing dozens of new trucks, poly-blades for parking structures, as well as winter storm-specific upgrades, including new box plows for our front-end loaders and skid-steers.

"It was time to upgrade our investment in snow and ice management equipment," says Ryan Brown, President/CEO of Aeroscape. "Our retail and large commercial properties required faster response times and quicker snow and ice removal, so we took the plunge and upgraded our fleet."

Aeroscape not only invested in new snow removal equipment for parking lots, access roads, and parking garages but added snow blowers specifically designed to handle sidewalks and entries. They also outfit their landscaping fleet to manage Utah's storms, including preparing front-end loaders for snow stacking, and when that is too much, transferring snow to the fleet of dump trucks or side-dump trailers to haul the snow off-site. They also stock up on road salt and ice melt to help keep the cleared parking lots and garages, sidewalks, and parking lots snow and ice-free for all. Aeroscape goes through 100,000 tons of road salt and over 100 tons of snowmelt on average each year.

"Nothing goes to waste here at Aeroscape. During the winter, our crew remains on the alert for winter storms. Once the storm arrives, we transform into a fast and efficient snow removal fleet," says Chad Spenser, Chief Operating Officer at Aeroscape.

Aeroscape's Winter Storm Operations Center

Aeroscape is on-call 24/7 when a winter storm threatens and activates a winter storm call center to coordinate snow removal efforts for their clients. Because Aeroscape uses GPS tracking on all of their heavy equipment, the call center can dispatch snow removal fleets at a moment's notice to where they are needed most. For more information, give us a call at 801.569.2383 or fill out a simple online form at the bottom of our snow and ice removal services page, and an Aeroscape account manager will get in touch with you.

SimpleNexus and Unify Integrate to Help Mortgage Lenders Streamline the Loan Process, Reduce Application Abandonment

LEHI, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- SimpleNexus, developer of the leading digital mortgage platform for loan officers, borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, today announced a two-way integration with Unify's Business Growth Platform(TM) that streamlines the loan application process to improve efficiency and help mortgage lenders reduce application abandonment.

Through the integration, loan applicant information entered into SimpleNexus automatically creates new contact records in Unify, where mortgage professionals can manage customer relationships and deploy automated marketing campaigns. When SimpleNexus detects a loan application abandonment - which occurs when borrowers start, but do not finish their loan applications - Unify is alerted to this abandonment. Unify can then send automated outreach campaigns, which include pre-written emails, call scheduling and appointment setting. This enables loan originators to convert more "drop-offs" into completed loan applications.

The integration also pushes data from Unify to SimpleNexus. With a simple push of a button, Unify contact record information is sent to SimpleNexus to populate a contact's application record. This eliminates the need for mortgage originators to manually enter information in 32 distinct data fields.

"U.S. mortgage volume is on pace to exceed $4 trillion in 2020 for the first time in history. This unprecedented volume is challenging loan originators to find new ways to be more efficient and productive," said SimpleNexus Founder and CEO Matt Hansen. "By leveraging the combined power of SimpleNexus and Unify, lenders can reduce originators' workloads and keep more business in the pipeline."

"We are pleased to offer clients a tight-knit integration between Unify and SimpleNexus," said Scott Lidberg, President of Unify. "Loan originators are busy, especially in these market conditions, and the automation and efficiencies this integration provides will allow them to manage their days more effectively and grow their businesses."

SimpleNexus Collaboration with Progressive Insurance Brings Home Insurance to Mobile Mortgage App Used by Nearly 3 Million Borrowers

LEHI, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- SimpleNexus (https://simplenexus.com/), developer of the leading digital mortgage platform for loan officers, borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, today announced the availability of home insurance quotes from Progressive® (NYSE: PGR, https://www.progressive.com/) within the SimpleNexus digital mortgage app.

Home insurance is a requirement for nearly all single-family home purchase and refinance loans. If a borrower fails to provide proof of home insurance in time for the loan closing, the loan cannot be finalized and funded. Such delays are costly to lenders and inconvenient for all parties. SimpleNexus' collaboration with Progressive makes it easy for borrowers to secure a home insurance policy in the same app they use to complete other loan-related tasks. Borrowers can also use Progressive's HomeQuote Explorer(tm) to compare quotes from multiple carriers.

"With SimpleNexus, any mortgage lender can give its customers a cohesive experience from home search to home closing - and now that includes home insurance," said SimpleNexus Founder and CEO Matt Hansen. "We're delighted to collaborate with a household name like Progressive to make it easy for borrowers to close their loans on time and obtain much-needed peace of mind."

"Working with SimpleNexus, we're excited to offer more choices to millions of U.S. borrowers as they become homeowners or are refinancing their existing loans," said Progressive Business Leader of Direct Property Quoting Tammy Loucks. "A home is likely a person's most valuable asset, and this integration makes it easy to obtain a home insurance policy."

SimpleNexus Extends Ellie Mae Integration with Hybrid eClosings for Mortgage Lenders and Borrowers

LEHI, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- SimpleNexus (https://simplenexus.com/), developer of the leading digital mortgage platform for loan officers, borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, today announced the availability of its recently launched hybrid eClosing feature on the Ellie Mae(R) Digital Lending Platform.

Ellie Mae, now a part of Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (NYSE: ICE), is the leading cloud-based loan origination platform provider for the mortgage industry. The Ellie Mae Digital Lending Platform empowers lenders and investors to engage homebuyers and efficiently originate, close, sell and purchase loans that maximize ROI across their business all from a single system of record. The platform delivers a true digital mortgage experience across the entire mortgage workflow for every channel, every loan transaction and every customer type.

"A lender's need for simple, effective eClosing solutions has never been greater," said SimpleNexus CEO Matt Hansen. "SimpleNexus eClosing delights borrowers and turbocharges closing team efficiency, resulting in loans that can be sent off to investors sooner and with fewer errors. By shrinking the gap between loan funding and shipping, lenders can save money by reducing their dwell time on warehouse lines of credit. Additionally, borrowers now have one single portal from home search to home closing."

"We are thrilled to have SimpleNexus join our existing eClosing partners to extend the availability of hybrid eClosing solutions within the Ellie Mae Digital Lending Platform," said Ellie Mae Vice President of Business Development Bob Hart. "This partnership is a key step in expanding our ability to provide our lender customers with easy access to digitally closing loans quickly and safely."

SimpleNexus eClosing enables lenders to conduct hybrid closings for purchase and refinance loans, resulting in higher quality loans and faster delivery of those loans to investors. In a hybrid eClosing, borrowers electronically sign (eSign) home loan documents that do not require notarization before meeting with a settlement agent or notary to finalize the closing. Closing appointments are reduced to only a few minutes, since relatively few documents require in-person signatures.

SimpleNexus Team Members enables mortgage lenders to fine-tune digital mortgage workflows, file permissions at the user level

LEHI, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- SimpleNexus (https://simplenexus.com/), developer of the leading digital mortgage platform for loan officers, borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, today announced the release of SimpleNexus Team Members, a feature that allows lenders to work more efficiently by managing loan file permissions and employee workflows based on assigned user roles.

With the release of Team Members, lenders can assign SimpleNexus users to roles such as loan originator (LO), LO assistant, processor, disclosure desk personnel, closer, post-closer or settlement agent. Lenders may also limit user access to a specific list of loan files or to loans associated with specific collaborators (LOs). Once Team Member settings have been configured, user workflows, notifications and document access are automatically customized based on Team Member assignments.

Team Members features available now include:

* Notifications:
Team Members receive and manage notifications based on collaborator (LO) and loan file assignments.

* Package Tracker:
Team Members can efficiently track disclosure packages and other files within SimpleNexus rather than toggling between SimpleNexus and their loan origination system (LOS).

* Pending Loan Updates:
Users of the Ellie Mae(R) Encompass(R) LOS can see pending actions on their 100 most recent loan assignments, enabling them to quickly identify loans that require action.

* Borrower Task Management:
Team members can track and manage borrower tasks on a loan file to help ensure requirements are met with the fastest turnaround possible.

Future updates to Team Members will integrate the feature with ConnectUs Chat, a messaging feature released in July 2020 that enables real-time loan file collaboration between LOs, borrowers and real estate agents within the SimpleNexus platform.

"Our new Team Members feature improves lender productivity by focusing employees on just the essential tasks that keep loans moving swiftly down the pipeline," said SimpleNexus Senior Product Manager Tyler Prows. "Automated loan progress notifications, milestone tracking and other process-enhancing features will be extended across loan teams through Team Members, helping lenders serve borrowers better from anywhere."

Team Members marks the most recent in a series of SimpleNexus product releases that enhance lenders' ability to collaborate with stakeholders in the loan production process from anywhere. Notably, SimpleNexus Disclosures, introduced last year, allows borrowers to eSign disclosures and lenders to distribute individual closing packages to settlement partners for online retrieval. The August 2020 release of SimpleNexus eClosing enables mortgage closing teams to conduct hybrid closings that minimize the need for physical closing appointments.

SimpleNexus and MobilityRE Enhance Mobile Integration with Push Notifications, More Powerful Home Search Features

LEHI, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- SimpleNexus (https://simplenexus.com/), developer of the leading digital mortgage platform for loan officers, borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, has enhanced its integration with MobilityRE with new features that improve the home search experience for borrowers and enable lenders and Realtors to respond more swiftly to borrower requests.

Available as an integrated tool within the SimpleNexus digital mortgage app, MobilityRE's white-labeled home search app is designed for Realtors and lenders to share with their clientele. MobilityRE pulls real-time property listings to ensure prospective homebuyers make decisions based on only the most accurate, up-to-date information. Homebuyers can save their favorite properties and set search criteria to identify homes that meet their personal preferences and credit capacity.

Unlike other home search apps, MobilityRE insulates homebuyers from the unwanted solicitation of opportunistic agents and lenders. Instead, a homebuyer's search history is visible only to their preferred Realtor and loan officer (LO), who receive instant, in-app notifications whenever the homebuyer requests a home showing or loan quote. Realtors and LOs are also alerted whenever the asking price of a saved property changes or a new listing hits the market that matches the applicant's search criteria.

"Real-time push notifications allow Realtors and loan officers to proactively assemble loan quotes, schedule home viewings and prepare pre-approval letters, saving customers valuable time in a competitive real estate market and ultimately converting more opportunities into closed loans," said SimpleNexus CEO Matt Hansen. "It's a win for everyone involved."

The enhanced integration also adds a filter to the home search experience that enables users to specify their preference for properties close to nightlife, public transportation and other "lifestyle" features, then view matching neighborhoods on a visual heatmap.

"The integration of MobilityRE and SimpleNexus brings together two award-winning technologies that empower lenders to capitalize on the central role of mobile devices in today's homebuying process," said MobilityRE CEO and Founder Ben Teerlink. "We're pleased to make this combined offering even more powerful with new features that give originators a serious edge when it comes to retaining prospects and closing deals."

Independent, Third-Party Analysis Shows SimpleNexus Digital Mortgage Platform Delivers 9X ROI

LEHI, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- SimpleNexus (https://simplenexus.com/), developer of the leading digital mortgage platform for loan officers, borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, today released key findings from an independent, third-party analysis quantifying mortgage lenders' monetary return on investment (ROI) in SimpleNexus. The findings validate that lenders using SimpleNexus consistently produce more loans and spend less in per-loan operational expenses thanks to the platform's built-in efficiencies.

Methodology

The ROI study was conducted by Jacksonville, Florida-based MarketWise Advisors (MWA), an independent consulting and advisory firm that assists banks, credit unions and independent mortgage companies across North America with system selection, due diligence, data/analytics and benchmarking. MWA developed a survey and analyzed responses from 40 SimpleNexus customers. The sample set had used SimpleNexus for an average of over two years at the time of the study and reported using SimpleNexus for an average of 80.3% of total loan originations.

Key Findings
* Participants reported an average ROI of 9.31, meaning that SimpleNexus' positive impact on lender revenues outweighed the cost of using the platform by more than nine times.
* Lenders reported an average 12.85% increase in inbound leads/referrals as a result of using SimpleNexus tools that help originators build stronger relationships and larger pipelines with referral partners.
* Loan officers' average application conversion rate improved by 13.16% as a result of using SimpleNexus, allowing those loan officers to close an average of 6.32 additional loans per year.
* The additional loan closings created an average of $3,159 per loan officer per year for the organization in additional net income.
* Lenders using SimpleNexus compressed loan processing time by an average of 1.49 days.
* Overall, lenders saved an average of $258.36 per loan in operational costs by spending fewer hours originating and processing mortgage loans thanks to SimpleNexus' ability to keep borrowers, real estate agents and loan originators connected throughout the loan process.

"From day one, SimpleNexus has focused on providing intuitive technology that enhances efficiency, profitability and the borrower experience. Now we can quantify those benefits," said SimpleNexus Co-founder Ben Miller. "In a bold act of transparency, we invited a third-party firm to quantify the ROI leading lenders across the industry have experienced firsthand. Our current customers and prospects deserve to know the value of investing in SimpleNexus."
