This article addresses the value proposition on why you would want to have a lender added in kvCORE and then how to make that request.
kvCORE for Mortgage Lender overview
There are several important reason as to why you would want to consider adding your lender to kvCORE:
- Lender representation on your kvCORE website.
- Teams can set up advanced lead routing rules for their lenders.
- The ease of sharing lead information quickly with your lender
- Lenders are notified via email of all contacts that are shared with them.
- Lenders view the same lead timeline and both of you see each other's actions. This allows you to integrate your lender in your follow up process.
- The account is created at no cost and is very similar to your agent kvCORE account with the exception that they do not get a front facing kvcore website.
- No additional training required, kvCORE covers this with a Lender Success Plan already loaded into the lender's dashboard when they sign in.
What to check for before requesting to have a lender added in kvCORE
- Check with your lender and make sure they are allowed to have their information displayed on an agent's real estate website.
- Check with your lender and make sure they are not currently set up in another brokerage's kvCORE
- kvCORE will not permit for duplicate accounts using the same email, even if in different brokerage kvCORE accounts.
- If your lender is partnered with a different brokerage using kvCORE, they will need to provide you with an alternate email address.
- Check your kvCORE account and make sure the lender has not already been added
- Check your lender tab in your kvCORE account to see if the lender already exists
- Log into app.kvcore.com
- Click on your name at the top right for the drop down box
- Click on lenders
- Check your lender tab in your kvCORE account to see if the lender already exists
As a reminder, everything you see in the lender tab is internal only, the lenders there represent requests from many different agents.
You can not remove them. It is just a database of all lenders added to the same office that your kvCORE account is connected to.
There may be instances where the lender does exist but has outdated information.
The lender just needs to sign in using the email address currently associated to their lender account and last known password so they can update their own lender profile.
If they are unable to sign in they can reach out to support@insiderealestate.com for assistance with account logins.
How to request a Lender be added to kvCORE
Lenders are added by Company Admins.
Company Admin access is relegated to very few eXp Realty Staff to maintain the integrity of our system and the confidentiality of your contacts information.
To ensure we maintain a proper workflow we ask that agents please complete the following form to make this request.
Account creation and expectations
Once you complete the form the information is sent to a ticket queue.
The ticket is worked on in the order it is received however typical turn time is 2 business days.
The team that monitors that queue will review the information and then proceeds with one of the following:
- If the lender account exists and is attached to the same office as the requesting agent the request is closed and nothing is completed.
- If the lender account exists but is not already attached to the same office as the requesting agent then the lender account is added to the additional office(s)
- If the lender account does not exist then the lender account is created and they will receive their own "Welcome to kvCORE" email with their logins.
- If the lender account does not exist but the account can not be created due to the lender email already in use, then you will receive an email asking you to please connect with your lender for a different email address.
At this time you will not be apart of that communication chain unless there is an issue. You can check your lender tab within 2 business days to see if they have been added.
