Entyre, a provider of Web-based mortgage closing systems, and LandAmerica OneStop, a provider of Web-based real estate transaction services, have announced a partnership under which they will create a "dynamic HUD" form for mortgage closings.Under the partnership, Moon Township, Pa.-based LandAmerica will integrate its closing applications with the eMortgage-X4 system of Ann Arbor, Mich.-based Entyre to create the HUD form. For the first time, all the information needed for a final HUD form (required for mortgage closings) will reside in one system, eliminating the need for duplicate data entry and labor-intensive post-closing reviews, the companies said. The dynamic HUD form "will allow us to streamline our mortgage closing process, and we anticipate that the cost savings that will be realized for large mortgage lenders and others will be significant," said Brandon Barnett of LandAmerica OneStop. The companies can be found online at http://www.entyre.com and http://www.landam.com.
