Advantage Credit and Ellie Mae Offer Mortgage Professionals Mortgage Loan Fraud Prevention Tools
Pensacola, FL (PRWEB) September 15, 2006 -- Advantage Credit International announced today that Advantage Credit’s LoanShield technology is now available through Ellie Mae’s Encompass®, Genesis 2000® and Contour™ Mortgage Automation Systems. With this new offering, Ellie Mae users can now integrate mortgage loan fraud protection into each application with the click of a mouse.
Advantage Credit, the Pensacola-based credit reporting agency serving over 20,000 mortgage professionals, developed LoanShield™ to aid brokers and lenders in the fight against mortgage fraud. LoanShield™ is a front-end decisioning system that inspects loan files for equity skimming, identity theft, straw buying, property flips, mortgage broker fraud, appraiser fraud, employment misrepresentation and more.
“Fraud prevention services have been widely used by our customers for some time,” said David Lewis, Vice President of Marketing at Ellie Mae. “The addition of LoanShield to the ePASS® Network puts our customers one click away from the tools our customers require to minimize fraud in every loan—without the need to re-enter information.”
LoanShield™ lowers the risk of fraud-related foreclosures, identifies early payment defaults, and detects mortgage broker fraud and produces alerts based on its findings and an at-a-glance Alert Summary Rating of the loan’s risk. LoanShield Plus™ includes a full AVM report with multi-variant models, searches its historical database for previously generated alerts on the submitted borrowers and subject property and provides a Borrower Alert Summary, a Subject Property Alert Summary and an Aggregate Alert Summary to help users make timely decisions.
“Advantage Credit has put a strong emphasis on mortgage loan fraud prevention,” said Sergei Khvatkov, chief technology officer of Advantage Credit. “We introduced LoanShield™ and LoanShield Plus™ for fraud prevention at the point of sale and are excited to reach more mortgage professionals through Ellie Mae’s Encompass, Genesis, and Contour LOS applications,” he continued.
