Digital Mortgage Lender, Beeline Announces Partnership with Stessa, a Roofstock company

PROVIDENCE, R.I., February   16th , 2022 -- Beeline, an emerging digital mortgage lender that provides the shortest path to homeownership, today announced an agreement with Stessa, a Roofstock company, the leading online marketplace for investing in the single-family rental (SFR) sector. Beeline will provide conventional and Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR)  Mortgages to Stessa’s clients as part of the partnership.  

Beeline’s platform is well suited to Stessa who makes it easier for real estate investors to manage their portfolios, just as Beeline does for home loans.  In just 15 minutes, Beeline provides borrowers  "Purchase And Refi-Ready Approvals," day or night, using a borrower's exact financial information and predictive analytics rather than relying solely on information that borrowers declare, as traditional pre-approvals do.  

With the borrower's consent, Beeline securely accesses their bank, income, and tax information online, verifies the numbers instantly, and gives a more reliable, accurate approval upfront.  Beeline boasts a remarkable 97% accuracy in predicting that their automated approval ultimately reaches Clear to Close — giving the borrower near certainty in as little as 15 minutes.  

“We are absolutely ecstatic about this partnership”,  said Nick Liuzza, CEO of   Beeline.   “We like Stessa because of its strong brand recognition, their ability to deliver on its stated goals and a kindred philosophy around enabling and empowering people into property ownership through technology, so we are super happy with the outcome.  Our platform will fit snugly with Stessa, and our ability to give early certainty, then close quickly will help build confidence with investor borrowers.”  

Beeline, whose platform already supports borrowers having multiple properties within a single profile, is developing a dedicated onboarding journey specifically designed for investors during Q1 of 2022,, which is different from a standard purchase transaction.   “Many lenders try to cram investors down a normal single-family purchase path,” said Jessica Kennedy, COO.   “It’s a different transaction and worthy of its own process and technology in order to heighten the customer experience while closing faster and more easily.” 

Beeline, which launched its proprietary platform in June of 2020, is licensed in 26 states and continues to advance its origination and title platforms as it moves toward $1B in mortgage originations.
