Trust Lending Leverages ReverseVision Platform to Expand Its Reverse Business REVERSEVISION'S EXCHANGE LOS PROVIDES BROKERS WITH THE TECH TOOLS NECESSARY TO AUTOMATE AND HASTEN THE REVERSE LENDING PROCESS. R everseVision has announced that Doral, Florida-based Trust Lending, a national mortgage banker, has gone live with ReverseVision's Exchange (RVX) platform for its wholesale lending channel. Trust Lending recently imple- mented ReverseVision's Exchange loan origination system (LOS) to automate its reverse lending process. The company's goal was to grow a new reverse product line, and provide its broker part- ners with easy-to-use technology tools that help them quickly and efficiently originate and manage reverse mortgage deals. "Trust Lending established the foundation of our business based on trust and excellence in ser- vice—not only for our borrower customers but also for our highly valued broker network," said Cesar Robledo, Reverse Mortgage Manager at Trust Lending. "ReverseVision's technology platform helped Trust Lending expand operations into the reverse mortgage business, and it gives our employees and brokers the functionality they need to effi- ciently originate, manage, process, and close reverse loans with ease. ReverseVision's LOS has become the technology backbone of our reverse mortgage operations, and we are excited about our new- found ability to scale this side of the business." Trust engaged with ReverseVision as part of a long-term strategy to grow its wholesale business by adding a new revenue stream as the refi boom winds down. The mort- gage lender is leveraging RVX to provide elevated service to senior borrowers, tech tools for brokers, and service a significantly under- served market. "It's refreshing to see a tech-sav- vy independent mortgage banker like Trust Lending implement technology to help their brokers penetrate the reverse market," said Joe Langner, President and CEO of ReverseVision. "There is a tre- mendous amount of opportunity for forward lenders to easily get into reverse mortgages and capitalize on an untapped market. Not only does it add a healthy revenue stream to the topline, but it also helps our seniors get the best loan product for their specific retirement situation. It's a win-win."
