LPS Tackles Loan Mod Volume Issue

In response to the need for mass loan modifications, Lender Processing Services has created RediMod, an application designed to streamline the loan modification process. LPS indicated at the MBA Servicing Conference in Tampa, Fla., that this new tool addresses processing and fulfillment needs for loan modifications by automating loan eligibility and best-fit determinations. The application is modular to enable those servicers with partial workout processes to merely fill in the gaps if there isn't a need for a new end-to-end process automation approach. RediMod includes data and analytics models that assign each loan in a portfolio a default propensity and loss severity score. It also has a rules engine that identifies borrowers currently in default and those at risk of defaulting in the future.
