With origination costs continuing to climb, finding efficiencies in the mortgage process is critical for lender profitability. Effective vendor management is a key driver in this process, and the comprehensive suite of services offered by WEST, a Williston Financial Group company, saves lenders time and money on every loan file.

WESTvm provides appraisal, title, flood, income and tax services through a single integrated, technology platform, allowing lenders to automatically order services with a push of the button.
“We want to do anything we can do to make our clients more efficient and do so in a manner that is open — and they can decide who they do business with,” Stone said. “We are not exclusive and we are all about making them more money.”
