We Have You Covered
Our workflow processes and loss mitigation strategies enable mortgage servicers of all sizes to better control their portfolios, reduce default rates and increase productivity—safely and compliantly.
1. Larger Servicers
We’re pros at delivering expert loss mitigation services and default servicing solutions geared specifically for larger servicing operations. Whether you’re looking for volume stabilization outsourcing, preparation for compliance audits, non-GSE loan portfolio assistance, acquisition/transfer support services, or process optimization, DLS Servicing has your back.
2. Small and Mid-Sized Servicers
We get it – smaller servicing operations offer versatility, but often lack the staff to manage rising defaults and constantly changing compliance regulations effectively. Our team of default experts is here to help overcome most default challenges, including staff training, consulting, compliance audits and reviews, procedural documentation, sub-servicer oversight, and servicing platform implementation.
3. Outsourcing Functions
Whether you’re dealing with a temporary surge in defaulted loans or seeking long-term or short-term strategies for better portfolio management, our outsourcing services can help. We offer loss mitigation reviews, FHA foreclosure claims (Part A&B), client-specific workflow processes, FHA first legal evaluations, and more, providing the essential support and guidance for unlocking growth.
