Чем занимается Lendsnap

The Digital Mortgage Company Lenders will write $1.5T of home mortgages in 2017, and will have to evaluate every single borrower's ability to repay. This is expected to cost the industry $15B in human labor. We talked to these humans, and learned that they spend 1/3 of their time just asking other humans for documents and data that are almost universally available online. While the market is slowly moving to transactional data, Lendsnap is the only company helping lenders get ahead of the competition by delivering original electronic documents and data sets. That means portfolios of our lender customers stay completely liquid in the secondary market. No one else can offer that today. Lendsnap instantly gathers the original borrower documents and data for lenders by linking to consumer financial accounts. We increase loan origination team productivity by 25%+ and save applicants several hours on each application as well. Our intuitive and easy-to-use workflow makes it easy and safe for borrowers to turn in and for loan officers to receive the necessary documents for lenders to make a credit decision. As the only company delivering the right documents and data to originate non-agency loans such as VA, FHA, and subprime, we are able to work with all types of lenders. Furthermore, we are uniquely suited to serve mortgage brokers (12% market share) who have to remain flexible to the credit needs of their diverse borrowers. We are the only post-launch company that delivers actual electronic statements straight from source institutions, such as Bank of America, TurboTax, Chase, and hundreds more.

The Digital Mortgage Company

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We build a platform that directly connects lenders to original borrower documents and financial data by linking to consumer financial accounts. Our product lets loan officers quickly and securely collect necessary information without chasing paper, saving time and increasing productivity. This is tailored for mortgage brokers and non-agency lenders who need actual electronic statements from source institutions like Bank of America and TurboTax.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in Berkeley, CA and plan to keep the company here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We are based in Berkeley because it gives us access to technical talent and proximity to the Bay Area fintech ecosystem, which helps us understand and serve mortgage lenders better.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Это реальная заявка Lendsnap в YC?

Нет. Y Combinator держит поданные заявки в приватности. Это реконструкция: реальные вопросы формы YC, ответы на которые основаны на публичных данных Lendsnap (заметки о запуске, бэкграунд фаундеров, описание продукта). Это показывает, как компания вроде Lendsnap представила бы себя YC, а не текст, который они подали.
