New RateStar enhancements provide express quotes
Arch Mortgage Insurance Company and mortgage technology provider Compass Analytics have announced that Arch’s RateStar MI pricing tool is now available on CompassPPE, a point-of-sale product, pricing, and eligibility engine for mortgage lending.
Through the integration, lenders using CompassPPE can utilize RateStar’s pricing and eligibility information at the time of rate lock, helping them provide accurate and complete pricing to borrowers.
Users don’t have to leave the platform to get an Arch MI quote while obtaining loan pricing, according to the company. RateStar analyzes a wide range of loan characteristics to offer complete and precise mortgage insurance rates.
