Boston, March 31, 2021 –In 2020, demand for purchase and refinance mortgage loans surged as interest rates declined and consumers sought to upgrade their homes. At the same time, lenders had to pivot to a remote and more digital loan origination environment. Lenders with cloud-based solutions that more efficiently originate loans adapted to the new reality over the last year, while others struggled amid steep increases in volume. Mortgage lenders can no longer maintain the status quo. Can point-of-sale and loan origination vendors help them brave the digital frontier?
