ServiceLink, provider of origination and default services based in Pittsburgh, Pa., and Fidelity National Financial's national lending platform are opening a new office in Rancho Cucamonga, Calif. and are expanding an existing operation in Buffalo, NY to support their growing loss mitigation operations. Outfitted with ServiceLink's technology, both locations aim to provide loss mitigation services to ServiceLink's lending clients. The new office in Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., opens today and will occupy over 19,000 square feet. The expanded Buffalo, NY, office will officially open on April 26 in a 15,000 square foot facility. "This expansion has doubled our loss mitigation capacity and allows ServiceLink to focus on assisting its clients in managing their troubled assets as the market continues to stress the capacity of lenders and servicers," said Jeff Coury, ServiceLink President and CEO. The company also has existing loss mitigation operations in Kansas and Virginia that provide outsource loss mitigation services including HAMP processing, HAFA, short sales, and deeds in lieu.
