eNewsChannels NEWS: WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — OpenClose, an enterprise-class, multi-channel loan origination system (LOS) provider, announced that HousingWire honored its president, JP Kelly, with its second annual Vanguard Award. The list recognizes highly successful executives who are making a positive difference in their respective fields across the mortgage industry.
“The HW Vanguards continued to impress going into its second year; the winners are second-to-none and this list represents the finest cross section of mortgage talent available,” said Jacob Gaffney, HousingWire editor-in-chief.
Winners were comprised of demonstrated leaders in the housing industry, achieving success that has impacted not only the members of individual organizations, but also the entire industry. The program recognizes C-level and business unit executives who have become leaders in their respective fields within housing and mortgage finance – those whose leadership is moving markets forward, each and every day. HousingWire states that it sets an extremely high bar for choosing its second annual list of HW Vanguards, which is a very competitive contest.
Key reasons that Mr. Kelly made the Vanguard Award list is the immense success that OpenClose has been experiencing with its multi-channel LenderAssist(TM) LOS and turnkey OC Correspondent(TM) module. Under Mr. Kelly’s leadership, OpenClose continues to grow at a rapid rate with lenders, banks and credit unions adopting its comprehensive LOS platform that fully automates all lending channels. The company also has a significant number of mortgage lenders and conduit aggregators that started leveraging its correspondent technology.
Several industry LOS technology studies and surveys have repeatedly scored OpenClose as being a leader in successful implementations, ease of system use, depth of functionality, innovation, responsive technical support, overall satisfaction, and customer retention, among other areas.
“I am honored to have been chosen as a Vanguard Award winner; it speaks volumes about the success OpenClose has had in recent years,” stated JP Kelly, president of OpenClose. “We have been at the forefront of web-based LOS technology since our inception in 1999. The impetus behind OpenClose’s success is really the result of our extremely dedicated, passionate, customer-focused employees who possess both mortgage lending and mortgage technology experience.”
