Owen Welch replied to CECILIA D FOX's discussion HERE'S A NEW ONE - WINDOW ROCK
"Window Rock is a fund.  I received the list but so far have not worked with them on the REO side nor have I purchased from them.   I met them at a conference and believe they are legit.  I believe they purchase lower end properties and notes."

Owen Welch replied to Zac Brown's discussion Need Help VRM Dealing with paying off HOA
"I don't think I've dealt with Mike.  We have a different HOA guy.
I do understand the concern with laying out cash on a new account.  I'm not sweating VRM but I am watching some of my small outsourcers closely.  The smaller clients seem to be the…"

Owen Welch replied to Zac Brown's discussion Need Help VRM Dealing with paying off HOA
"I hear you Zac.  I will say it's gotten better over the last couple of weeks.  When I really need something I've found a phone call is fastest (opposite of most).   I think VRM was overwhelmed by the new contract but again, I am seeing…"

"I have used it on and off for smaller REO clients and an outsourcer that handles equity fund properties.  I can't advise you on the e-signature but it is a legit platform, but certainly not my favorite."

Owen Welch replied to Jason Harper's discussion Is there a BPO Automation program compatible with Equator (formerly REOTrans)?
"BPO Assistant through RIO  aka Track My Foreclosures definately works with Equator and so does Realty Pilot.  Both work well and either are well worth the fee. "

Owen Welch replied to Kent Steffes's discussion Fannie Mae moving REO Sales in-house‏-
"I'm kind of jumping in late but keep in mind that often times repair bids are ordered to confirm the cost of repairs, especially when there is a variance between the BPO and appraiser's estimated repair cost. 
This helps with internal IGV (Fannie…"
