Modernization can be boiled down to an equation. The more data and automation available to improve the overall mortgage origination process, the more the overall cost to originate the loan goes down.

In fact, one of the industry’s largest organizations, the Mortgage Industry Standards Maintenance Organization (MISMO), is working steadily to streamline the mortgage origination process by replacing paper forms with digital processes.

In this episode, host Maiclaire Bolton Smith sits down with Sage Nichols, an executive for client success at CoreLogic, to talk about how standards, best practices and property data can pave the way for modernizing the mortgage industry.
