Wells Accepting E-Docs From Fiserv

Wells Fargo Funding has added Fiserv to the list of vendors from which it will accept e-1003s and e-disclosures. The company recently announced that such e-docs would be accepted from DocuSign, Encomia, and eLynx. Electronic document delivery is increasing throughout the mortgage industry because it quickly engages the borrower in the lending process, assists lenders in meeting the three-day Real Estate Settlement Procedure Act requirements, and eliminates the fixed costs of courier delivery. A major purchaser of loans, Well Fargo Funding said it has established internal standards to ensure that electronically delivered and electronically signed initial disclosures are legally binding. In agreeing to purchase loans, the company said it has determined that the Fiserv eLending platform provides the right level of borrower security and document audit trails required to meet risk tolerances for secondary-market loan purchases.
