What's Your Line?
I have been using the Lane Guide
Directory for a week now, and it has already shown its usefulness. I
needed to contact the REO department of a major bank, and the
mortgage in question was issued to a bank the current owner acquired.
Click, click, and I had the current address, name and phone
information of the current bank. I dictated a letter, sent it to 3 of
the addresses, and I am now confident that my missive will reach the
eyes of the bank official who needs to see it. Thanks, Richard Lane.
Great product"..

Lane Guide | Customer Profiles
Lane Guide is a convenient and effective way to locate lenders, financing companies, and bank-owned real-estate asset managers. Our services have grown and evolved over the last 50 years to aid our customers in researching information.
Our services have provided key information to professionals in many fields. Several examples include:
Attorneys & Trustees
The Lane Guide is used by attorneys and legal departments to facilitate real estate transactions, asset searches, or attachment services. The Guide is an ideal tool for locating the correct location and sending or calling for payoff quotes, beneficiary statements, mortgage discharges, assignments or title transfers, account attachment notices and alike.
Trustees use the Guide as a creditor directory. To help locate lenders and creditors, both secured and unsecured, for discharges, bankruptcy settlements, lien releases
and foreclosure. When they have a stack of returned checks, they use Lane Guide to
help them locate creditors or quickly find their successor.
Investigators also use the Guide in conjunction with asset searches and skip-tracing work. Our CD-ROM product allows them to find financial institutions by name, county, city or zip code range. If you have a need to contact financial institutions on a regular basis, Lane Guide is an ideal reference for your
office.
Settlement and Loan Processing
Lane Guide Helps to locate the loan servicing centers for payoffs and demands. The escrow officer knows far too well that the address the borrower provides is oftentimes the "payment" address and NOT the actual location of records. Sometimes, the payment address is a third-party which only processes the payment for the institution. Therefore, the escrow professional uses the Lane Guide to determine the correct institution and the appropriate office or department of that institution. Plus, Lane Guide includes bank branch and deposit verification locations too.
Lane Guide provides street and mailing addresses, telephone numbers for verbal
requests and follow-ups, fax numbers for those who may accept faxed payoff
statement requests and a schedule of any applicable fees (i.e.: demands,
updates, beneficiary statements, assumptions and alike). If the Guide saves you
just one escrow delay a year, it has more than paid for itself. Our exclusive
LenderTrace system make life easy for settlement professionals by finding
step-by-step cross-references for closed lenders (

Note Buyers/Defaulted Asset Investors
Serious Note Buyers and Investors have been using Lane Guide for years to contact the Credit and Special Asset departments of banks, credit unions and mortgage lenders. From reverted sales on the Courthouse steps to tracking down the current lender from county records data or foreclosure auction websites, Lane Guide saves you countless hours of research time and headaches!
We have all lenders in one place along with those hard to find non-public numbers for REO, Special Assets, Loan Serivcing and others. Why start your lender hunt in the phone book or endless internet searches when you can
SPEED PAST GO! and get right to information you need. Additionally, Lane Guide lists REO and Defaulted histories for institutions so you can quickly identify the players in your area.
You'll most likely hear about our service in top training seminars
and note buying guru's like Bob Leonetti,
Steve Clements
and Pete & Tony Youngs among
others.
Tax & Code Enforcement
Municipal officials have been using Lane Guide for years for
contacting mortgage companies regarding code violations and tax-lien
notices. With all the mergers and acquistions in the industry
state and local authorities use Lane Guide to find the successor and the
loan servicing departments for the lender of record.
Code enforcement officers are facing record violations on growing
numbers of foreclosed, vacant or abandoned properties. Tax and
Foreclosure record research only leads to large banks or distant
mortgage companies. Code officers need to find the REO or Loan
Service department in order to send notices of violations. Lane
Guide gives them a quick and convenient tool for finding those
contacts - nationwide.
