With Memorial Day come and gone, we thought it’d be interesting to look at the amount of Veteran’s Association (VA) loans compared to the total amount of loans quoted through Marksman each year.

At Mortech we’re constantly working to provide you with the best possible tools to help you streamline your business, nurture your borrowers, and close more loans quickly. With so many options and tools available to you, it can feel overwhelming at times to try and utilize everything, or even to understand how certain Marksman tools can streamline your operations. So we wanted to highlight some products you could be using, and show you how they can help boost your mortgage lending workflow.

Here at Mortech, we’re not just focused on providing you with all the tools you need within our mortgage pricing engine, Marksman^®. We also pride ourselves in being mortgage experts who are constantly monitoring the business and providing easy access to mortgage loan products that you can supply your customers with accordingly.
