WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. /eNewsChannels/ — NEWS: OpenClose, an enterprise-class end-to-end loan origination system (LOS) provider, announced that it has been named to HousingWire magazine’s second annual HWTECH 100(TM) list for 2015. HW TECH100 honors the 100 most innovative technology companies serving the U.S. mortgage finance and real estate industries.
“We’re honored to again be recognized by HousingWire as one of the top technology vendors in the industry for our ongoing achievements,” said JP Kelly, president of OpenClose. “Ultimately, we made the list as a result of our talented, dedicated staff members coupled with the strong relationships we have with our clients who help us constantly innovate and improve on our solutions.”
HousingWire states that more than 250 companies were evaluated by HousingWire editors for the 2015 program, which looks at technology innovation along six different categories: uniqueness of solution, growth, market influence, market potential, elegance of implementation, and “something else entirely” – a catch-all for disruption and other factors that drive innovation.
“This year we were struck by the level of innovation we saw, with 40 new additions to the HW TECH100,” stated Jacob Gaffney, executive editor at HousingWire. “That speaks to how much change is taking place in the mortgage industry overall right now; we’re seeing a lot of market disruption, and technology providers are clearly taking advantage of the opportunity that creates.”
OpenClose experienced significant growth over the course of the last year, signing several major clients, adding new staff, enhancing existing solutions, and completing some key software initiatives. Increasing demand for OpenClose’s end-to-end LOS platform, correspondent and wholesale solutions were cited as the primary reasons for its growth.
“Technology is changing both the mortgage and real estate industries in tangible and positive ways,” remarked Paul Jackson, publisher and CEO of HousingWire. “The honorees that are part of the 2015 HW TECH100 are shaping this revolution, helping forge the future of an industry that drives the U.S. economic engine.”
