The MERS System is a national electronic registry system that tracks the changes in servicing rights and beneficial interests in mortgage loans that are registered on the system. The MERS System integration in Encompass Web helps enable new registration requests with near real time responses to the Encompass user. The integration enables lenders to leverage new powerful and intelligent service ordering workflows from service partners with benefits like automated service ordering, more streamlined workflows, and better user experiences. Encompass users can manage registration data templates and register loans with MERS by utilizing HTTPS Post transaction supported by MERS to transmit an XML loan registration request. Upon successful registration, the MERS registration date is populated in Encompass. This blog explores the process of setting up configuration for using MERS in Encompass Web.
