CoreLogic, the real estate data and software provider, has acquired point-of-sale platform Roostify, an addition that will give it capabilities to directly assist lenders at the beginning of a digital loan process.
The move allows the Irvine, California-based CoreLogic to share business intelligence with mortgage companies in the first stages of borrowing, thereby ideally helping them identify errors early.
"We sit on an incredible amount of data, analytics and essential workflow solutions that, when properly integrated into the loan lifecycle, can deliver a better mortgage experience for borrowers as well as lenders," said Jay Kingsley, president, mortgage solutions at CoreLogic, in a press release.
Roostify's platform is used in processing more than $50 billion worth of loans each month, according to the company's website. Its client base ranges from enterprise banks to independent brokerages.
Calling the deal an important transaction for the mortgage industry, Roostify Co-Founder and CEO Rajesh Bhat said the combined company "allows us to accelerate the journey towards a truly data driven digital origination experience in one single platform."
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
