Case in Point: I was one of the first people to raise awareness about HVCC (Home Value Code of Conduct in 2008 and while most of the public was unaware of its existence, they soon became aware when they couldn’t get a fair appraisal of their home, which impeded refinancing or selling their home. Consumers, mortgage professionals, real estate agents and displaced appraisers learned first hand how overreaching legislation with good intent can have bad consequences.

SOPA (Stop Online Privacy Act)

SOPA is by far the most dangerous piece of legislation I’ve ever seen introduced. It not only stands to put many businesses out to pasture, but could also limit online freedom, put a “firewall” in place to censor online activity and give far reaching powers to corporate giants. It will also break some components that are essential to how the internet works, while still not preventing piracy since there are ways piracy can and will easily exist despite this legislation.

Who Will SOPA Negatively Affect?

You. Me. Google. Facebook. Youtube ….. Many startups would be crushed by SOPA and existing business like Etsy, Flickr and Vimeo may very likely have to close their doors.

Why Your Voice Counts

The corporate lobbyists for the music and television interests that favor SOPA outspend technology companies 10 to 1 in Washington. Without your voice, SOPA may very well pass.

The freedoms we have in the US are what set us apart from other nations and enable us the ability to pursue the personal and business endeavors we cherish so much. I’m passionate about protecting our these freedoms, which is why I stand against SOPA.

• Register Early & Save: Similar mortgage events cost $195 or more. Not us. The first Mortgage Tech Summit registrant will pay $1 to attend. That’s right. $1.

Openclose develops Service as a Solution (Saas) software for the mortgage and real estate industry. They truly offer an all-in-one package that puts loan originators in the best position to market themselves. They offer website building, a loan origination system and a pricing engine as their more traditional services. But, what makes them more interesting is that they’re really making tracks moving towards modern marketing as they include social networking services as well. Loan originators that are tired of working with various service providers that have a stuffy attitude will certainly appreciate Openclose, as they’ve got a website filled with emoticons and snarky statements; but neither of these things are presented in a way that’s unprofessional, it just shows they’re with the times!

Mortgage Website Design by Openclose

Openclose designs websites, and there is hands-on activitiy from those who take control over your account which also ensures that SEO remains a focus with the content. LenderAssist is their lead generation software that’s actually built into the online site, it’s totally web-based which also makes it increasingly more conveneint and current.

Social Media by Openclose

Their unique social media services for the mortgage industry allow mortgage originators to get online and get active with their consumers if that’s something that’s they’ve already been lacking! There are a couple of packages to choose from but both of them begin with setup and various levels of engagement with clients.

From the Openclose About Us Page

We are a pioneer in developing software as a service (SaaS) for the mortgage industry. Our customers add components to their businesses as they grow while still preserving their initial investment well into the future.

“They” said an end-to-end online lending solution could not be done – so we did it. We are Web-based mortgage visionaries that didn’t just survive the mortgage meltdown, we thrived. All of our clients are US based mortgage lenders and mortgage brokers so 100% of our mortgage applications are developed here in the U.S. We speak your language – literally. And all of our developers are employed full-time that means there’s no finger pointing.
