Best Mortgage PPE Software 2021
Mortgage Pricing Engines Provide Potential Borrowers with Quick and Accurate Pricing.
Product Pricing Engine
Borrowers demand efficiency! Top-performing lenders increase their ROI year over year by finding new methods for streamlining the loan process. One efficiency that every mortgage professional needs to consider integrating into their lending system is a product pricing engine.
What is a Pricing Engine?
A product pricing engine (PPE) is a software that streamlines the beginning of the loan process to calculate pricing options. Using a pricing engine, mortgage professionals can automate the generation of different loan pricing scenarios with varying rate options.
By streamlining the process, mortgage originators and borrowers can compare rates effortlessly with the option to lock the rates for up to 60 days.
What are the essential functions of a PPE?
Product pricing engines provide value by optimizing interactions between lenders and home buyers. Allowing borrowers to view their pricing data directly within the software builds trust and confidence with the loan officer.
While different product pricing engines are similar in providing service, lending professionals need to look for these critical functions when selecting a product pricing engine:
- THE NUMBERS MUST BE ACCURATE!
Real-time rates effectively win new buyers, but if the information is inaccurate, you will quickly lose that buyer and face potential consequences for being non-compliant.
- RATE LOCKING
Rate locks give home buyers the time they need to review different lending options without the fear of losing a competitive rate.
- PPE TRAINING
Your product pricing engine should be able to educate prospective borrowers on potential worst-case scenarios.
Which systems need to integrate with your PPE?
A pricing engine grants lenders the ability to provide real-time results to potential borrowers. Still, without a CRM like Surefire streamlining communications and following up with buyers, it is easy to lose the potential sale.
Integrating a product pricing engine with your CRM helps you stay top of mind throughout the borrower’s journey.
