As mortgage brokers feel the pinch, Mortgage Options of America Inc., a full service mortgage broker, has managed to save more than $20,000 in operating costs while reducing its loan fees more than 15% by automating. Specializing in first and second mortgages, debt consolidation and refinancing, MOA is licensed in Florida, Maine, Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Because the majority of its employees work on the road, the company needed total transparency, which it was not receiving from its previous system. This spurred the company's decision to switch to Xetus' XetusOne Loan Origination System. Prior to utilizing XetusOne, MOA had costly server needs, a T1 fiber optic line, and had to devote a lot of time backing up files and updating software. MOA credits a lot of its success to its strategic plan to automate.
