Improved CD Audit Assist Checks

Value: Ensure you produce a compliant CD every time

We have tweaked and added new checks to our CD Audit Assist feature. To get to these features go to Settings > Compliance Checks. They are outlined below.

  • Homeowners insurance - We now check to ensure a homeowners insurance fee is either in section G or F
  • Page 5 Contact updates - We now intelligently determine if a loan is a REFI and if it is we do not check for seller or buyer broker information
  • State license ID and NMLS ID updates - There are two fields on a CD for NMLS ID and State license ID. They are normally called Contact license ID and license ID for example.  We only now check to make sure one or the other is filled in
  • Transfer tax government payee updates - We fixed a bug with this functionality and now check for the word “Registry” to ensure a government payee is on the transfer tax lines
  • Title Fees all in same section update - We fixed a bug to ensure all title fees are either in section B or C but not split between the two sections

Blocked Extraneous Emails - Send Updated CD, Pre-balanced

Value: Ensure you are saving time by only receiving emails you need

We now only send a single email when you click the send updated CD button or pre-balanced button - previously we were sending notifications about processing documents when that was redundant and confusing.


CD BALANCING

Allow setting a pre-balanced state

Value: Create clarity across all parties on the state of the CD

To turn this setting on you use the checkbox in the screenshot below.

This will allow a user to mark a CD entry as “Pre-balanced” to indicate to users that the title fees are balanced but potentially the wire or lender fees still need to be finalized.  This button and status look like the below.

This will change the status and pull a new CD, but it won’t change anything else about the state of the entry.  To change the status back you click the button below.
