Equifax Introduces New Mortgage Verification Solution
All Employers Within 90 Days™ Helps Lenders Enhance Their Loan Processes
ATLANTA, July 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Equifax® (NYSE: EFX) has launched a new solution, All Employers Within 90 DaysTM, in support of its commitment to providing an extensive set of verification solutions for the mortgage industry.
Powered by The Work Number®, All Employers Within 90 DaysTM allows credentialed lenders to verify a borrower's income and employment information from the previous 90 days. Developed in response to customer feedback, the new solution — which provides a narrow verification period — may be particularly useful for situations when a borrower has been employed at the same job for a long period of time and therefore employment records beyond 90 days are not needed.
"Lenders have many choices when it comes to verifying income and employment information, from in-house or consumer-provided options to working with external companies," said Joel Rickman, Senior Vice President, Verification Services, Equifax Workforce Solutions. "At Equifax, we offer a variety of tailored verification solutions that were developed specifically with mortgage lenders in mind. By offering different types and levels of data at various price points, many lenders are able to find an Equifax solution that meets their specific requirements."
In addition to launching All Employers Within 90 DaysTM, Equifax has introduced modifications to its existing All Employers Within 12 MonthsTM and All Employers Within 24 MonthsTM offerings. Those modifications support lenders with a smoother billing process for those services, resulting in more aligned processing.
With these enhancements and modifications, lenders can choose the solutions they need and the time frame that is most effective for both the borrower and the lender, helping provide a faster time to close and more lender flexibility. Each solution also benefits from the industry-leading security capabilities of Equifax, helping ensure that both borrowers and lenders can be confident their information is protected.
"In today's mortgage market, our customers need solutions that drive speed and reduce fallout," said Chris Mock, Vice President, Mortgage Verification Services at Equifax Workforce Solutions. "Lenders that utilize automated mortgage verification solutions can better provide the type of fast and seamless purchase process that homebuyers have come to expect. And with the variety of solutions available from Equifax, lenders can choose just the records they need to lend confidently."
Through The Work Number database, Equifax is the industry-leading commercial source of consolidated employment information in the United States. This data can help credentialed verifiers with a permissible purpose — such as mortgage lenders — instantly verify potential borrowers' employment and income, enabling a streamlined mortgage process.
