Mortgage lenders and originators use FinLocker to recover turned down applicants

 

The overall denial rate for residential purchase mortgage applications was 8% in 2022, according to the CFPB. However, the denial rates on applications submitted by Hispanic and Black applicants were significantly higher – 16.4% and 11.1%, respectively. Denial rates for refinance applications were 14.2% overall.

Consumers are often declined with a form letter with little to no advice on what actions can improve their loan eligibility. Rather than leave denied applicants fending for themselves, mortgage originators can utilize a private-labeled FinLocker to recover turned down applicants.

FinLocker addresses the most common reasons for mortgage denials with a personalized action plan, intuitive tools and educational resources to overcome their initial reasons for the denial and improve their loan eligibility, so their next mortgage application will be stronger.

Mortgage originators receive consumer-permissioned data insights so they can monitor the progress of their borrowers, and know when to connect to offer additional advice or start their new mortgage application.
