Automatic delinquency item processing with customization for lenders
View Patent ↗A method of processing delinquency items associated with taxes on properties may include receiving preferences from two or more lenders. Delinquency items may be automatically processed according to the preferences of each lender for their respective loans. The preferences may include business rules for whether to process a delinquency item. A lender preference may include specific criteria for a determination process (e.g., criteria for when to act on delinquencies with respect to particular states).
1. A computer-implemented method of processing tax delinquency status on a property throughout a term of a loan, comprising:
receiving a property identification information relating to the property;
monitoring with a processor at least one tax database throughout the term of the loan for any change in the tax delinquency status related to the property, said monitoring including performing a state matrix selection that determines whether further processing is needed to resolve a tax related item identified for said property, and applying state-specific or agency-specific business rules to said tax related item to resolve said tax related item; and
notifying a lender of any change in the tax delinquency status related to the property during the term of the loan.
2. A computer-implemented method of processing tax delinquency items associated with taxes on a property throughout a term of a loan comprising:
receiving a property identification information relating to the property;
monitoring with a processor at least one tax database throughout the term of the loan for any tax delinquency items related to the property;
locating any tax delinquency items associated with the property; and
extinguishing any tax delinquency items during the term of the loan based on an equity analysis and a state matrix selection process, said monitoring including performing a state matrix selection that determines whether further processing is needed to resolve a tax related item identified for said property, and applying state-specific or agency-specific business rules to said tax related item to resolve said tax related item.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the equity analysis extinguishes the tax delinquency if the estimated equity of a borrower in the property is small compared to the loan balance or the amount of delinquent tax, payment to cure the delinquency is necessary to adequately protect the interest of a lender.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the state matrix a threshold date is defined for each state or agency, and the threshold time for each state in determining whether to extinguish the tax delinquency item(s).
5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the equity analysis comprises extinguishing the tax delinquency item(s) if the net of sales is equal to or greater than the principal balance.
6. A computer-implemented system for processing tax delinquency status on a property throughout a term of a loan, comprising:
an interface;
a CPU; and
a memory coupled to the CPU, wherein the memory comprises program instructions that when executed by the CPU causes the CPU to:
receive a property identification information relating to the property through the interface;
monitor with the CPU at least one tax database throughout the term of the loan for any change in the tax delinquency status related to the property; and
notify via said interface a lender of any change in the tax delinquency status related to the property during the term of the loan, said monitor with the CPU including performing a state matrix selection that determines whether further processing is needed to resolve a tax related item identified for said property, and applying state-specific or agency-specific business rules to said tax related item to resolve said tax related item.
7. A computer-implemented system of processing tax delinquency items associated with taxes on a property throughout a term of a loan comprising:
an interface;
a CPU; and
a memory coupled to the CPU, wherein the memory comprises program instructions that when executed by the CPU causes the CPU to:
receive a property identification information relating to the property through the interface;
monitor with the CPU at least one tax database throughout the term of the loan for any tax delinquency items related to the property;
locate any tax delinquency items associated with the property; and
extinguish any tax delinquency items during the term of the loan based on an equity analysis and a state matrix selection process, said monitor with the CPU including performing a state matrix selection that determines whether further processing is needed to resolve a tax related item identified for said property, and applying state-specific or agency-specific business rules to said tax related item to resolve said tax related item.
