The adoption of electronic mortgages is being limited by the small number of investors who will buy e-mortgages in the secondary market, but all that may change next year, according to speakers at the Mortgage EC Conference in Las Vegas.Tim Anderson, executive vice president of Dexma, said people will realize the intrinsic benefits of transacting electronically. He predicted that investors might even start offering incentives. "In 2006, I predict an investor will actually offer 1/8th of a point if the mortgage is electronic," Mr. Anderson concluded.
