New Name, Look and Feel for the Selling System
The Freddie Mac Selling System® will be rebranded to Loan Selling Advisor℠ on December 11 – fully integrating it into Freddie Mac Loan Advisor Suite®.
What’s New?
Loan Selling Advisor will offer the same functionality you’ve come to expect and rely on, but with a new user interface and design for a holistic, integrated user experience in Loan Advisor Suite. You’ll access it via single sign-on through the Loan Advisor Suite portal in the sidebar.
Other improvements we’re making – based largely on your feedback – include:
- Implementing a top-level navigation structure that’s easily accessible and always visible. Includes a “metro (subway) stop” navigation pane on loan screens, so you can easily move between sections without scrolling.
- Recategorizing menu items for easier end-to-end system navigation.
- Providing clearer, cohesive and more actionable purchase edit messages that will also be reflected in Loan Quality Advisor®. NOTE: We’ll deploy this update on Monday, November 6.
- Updating user guidance to be more concise, clear and consistent.
- Optimizing the screen resolution and making better use of your screen’s “real estate.”
- Improving presentation of large tables for easier viewing and navigation.
- Stacking closing/current/modification/conversion information on the loan screens – no more tabs to click through.
- Upgrading the search capability on loan screens to give you better results.
This is a big step forward and we’re not done – we’ll continue to look for ways to improve functionality and your user experience.
