By nfmadmin — 7 years ago

More and more of the loan process is happening for the consumer via the Internet. Mortgage applications, document uploading such as W2s and appraisals, document signing, communication and approvals are all happening more often on mobile platforms.

No doubt, in today's world, where people may prefer to do everything online, there needs to be a balance. But what is the right balance?
