Mutual customers get seamless access to SmartCLOSE™ to share closing information in real-time

MOUNT LAUREL, N.J. and TORRANCE, Calif.  – KeyStoneB2B, the fintech solution that delivers competitive advantages for financial services leaders, and DocMagic, Inc., the premier provider of fully-compliant loan document preparation, regulatory compliance and comprehensive eMortgage services, today announced a partnership to provide DocMagic’s SmartCLOSE™ through the KeyStoneB2B platform. This partnership enables mortgage lenders and settlement service agents using the KeyStoneB2B platform to connect seamlessly to SmartCLOSE, a central portal for sharing and collaborating on documents, data and fees. DocMagic’s GSE-certified solution satisfies every phase of the entire Uniform Closing Dataset (UCD) mandate.

Assuring accuracy and consistency in loan data, documents and fees prior to closing has traditionally been a big challenge for lenders, due not only to the large amount of information being passed back and forth between lenders and numerous settlement service providers, but also to the amount of times the information contained in the file changes.

“Loan information changes on a moment to moment basis, and without a central system of record, lender compliance relies on multiple parties involved in the transaction, and their ability to proactively connect with each other to reconcile data, fees and information,” said Dominic Iannitti, CEO of DocMagic. “With the amount of detail and the number of people involved, it’s almost impossible to achieve completely accurate and consistent information unless there’s a single system of record.” 

“Now that our lender customers have seamless access to SmartCLOSE, they and their settlement service providers can establish an accurate, always-updated single system of record, which will save them a lot of time and prevent a lot of potentially costly errors and inconsistencies,” said James V. Luisi, chief information officer and chief technology officer for KeyStoneB2B. “Plus, they benefit from a host of other features, not the least of which is compliance with the GSEs’ UCD mandate prior to its June deadline.”

In addition to its function as a collaboration hub, SmartCLOSE can also be used to generate and deliver GSE-certified UCD (Uniform Closing Dataset)-compliant files to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, prior to the GSEs’ June deadline. According to an announcement by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, file submissions that are not UCD-compliant no longer result in a warning, but rather will be escalated to critical or fatal severity and not be accepted in either GSEs’ delivery system as of June 25, 2018.

Other SmartCLOSE benefits include:

  • Synchronized collaborative workflow
  • Real-time chat and instant messaging
  • Continuous compliance and TRID tolerance monitoring
  • Automated event and audit logging
  • Bi-directional integration with leading Loan Origination Systems
  • Integrated eDelivery of borrower disclosures
  • Certified MISMO 3.3 compliant XML data and document exchange
  • Captures the required borrower and seller data information for
  • Embedded XML Closing Disclosure (CD)

 “Quality, compliance and efficiency are top concerns of most lenders and also three of the top benefits of an electronic process,” said Dominic Iannitti, president and CEO of DocMagic, Inc. “Together with companies like KeyStoneB2B, DocMagic is showing lenders not only how easy it is to attain these three components, but also how cost-effective it is as well.”
