Lender Services

 

There is one core reason we at Universal Settlements develop and maintain rock-solid partnerships with mortgage lenders and brokers: to provide the highest level of service to our mutual customer, the homebuyer. Our staff is trained to not only serve the customer at the time of closing, but also to the details after closing, including the timely return of settlement packages and title policies to the mortgage broker or lender.

As the recognized authority in providing real estate settlement services, we understand the importance of technology in the real estate world. Our formal training program enables us to be more efficient with technology and to serve both our lender partners and homebuyers. And we have refined our settlement services to exceed the expectations of mortgage lenders, incorporating state-of-the-art technology to allow for consumer needs now and in the future.

As part of our technology program, we have extended our customer service online at www.UniversalSettlements.net, which is fully supported by our office staff. It allows mortgage lenders or their customers to originate the title order quickly and simply from their computers. Additional services available for you include:
