Staffing for Every Stage of Mortgage Servicing and Default
Mortgage Servicing Staffing
Keep performing loans performing. We staff loan servicing specialists, payment processors, escrow analysts and borrower customer service teams who understand servicing platforms, escrow and payoff processing, and the regulatory expectations that come with every borrower call. For early-stage delinquency and collections support, see our collections staffing solutions.
Loss Mitigation Staffing
When hardship requests spike, application backlogs grow fast. Workway provides loss mitigation specialists, negotiators and underwriters experienced with loan modifications, forbearance, repayment plans, short sales and deeds in lieu, and with the FHA, VA, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac workout options behind them. Surge teams can start on temporary assignments and convert to permanent staff once volume settles.
Foreclosure & REO Staffing
Foreclosure work runs on deadlines. We place foreclosure specialists, referral and timeline coordinators and REO asset coordinators who track judicial and non-judicial timelines, manage attorney and vendor hand-offs, and keep properties moving from foreclosure sale to REO disposition.
Bankruptcy Staffing
Bankruptcy filings add a legal layer to every servicing decision. Workway recruits bankruptcy specialists and bankruptcy paralegals who handle Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 cases, proofs of claim, motions for relief and plan payment tracking, for servicers and the default law firms that represent them.
Default Servicing Staffing
Need to staff the whole department? We build default servicing teams from team leads to managers, including quality control, investor reporting and claims staff, so a single partner covers every stage from delinquency to resolution.
