More Than Title: How Stewart Powers the Full Mortgage Servicing Lifecycle
While Stewart’s 130-year history is rooted in title and escrow, today’s Stewart is much more, a technology-forward partner helping lenders navigate every phase of the mortgage lifecycle, including servicing and default.
Redefining Support for Servicers
Stewart approaches default servicing through a modern lens. By integrating credit, capacity and collateral analysis with a fourth “C”, the customer, Stewart delivers a comprehensive, borrower-centric approach. From cloud-based customer journeys to predictive analytics, the goal is clear: help servicers act early, communicate effectively and retain borrowers whenever possible.
Driving Digital Efficiencies
Technology investments are central to this strategy. Solutions like NotaryCam, PropStream and Stewart Valuation Intelligence eliminate delays, reduce costs and provide clarity around value and ownership. Through NotaryCam’s remote online notarization (RON), loan modification timelines have been shortened by 60%, eliminating traditional bottlenecks and improving the borrower experience.
Custom Default Solutions, Not One-Size-Fits-All
Whether it’s pre-foreclosure title, REO, deed-in-lieu or valuation services, Stewart offers tailored default solutions built around each client’s milestones and goals. The team emphasizes listening – understanding each servicer’s systems, API needs and operational pain points to deliver targeted, scalable results.
Preparing for the Unexpected
As new trends like qualified assumptions gain momentum, Stewart is standing up doc prep platforms to support this evolving space. From assumptions to assignments and releases, Stewart is anticipating where the market is headed and investing accordingly.
Default servicing doesn’t have to mean foreclosure. With Stewart’s servicing and default ecosystem, lenders can deploy proactive tools, meet borrowers where they are, and reduce costs, all while preserving the borrower relationship.
