Recent changes in industry and economic conditions have kept legal and compliance staff at every mortgage company extremely busy," said Residential Finance Corporation Vice President David Stein. "The coming year will see this trend continue, as the mortgage industry faces even more stringent systems and rules. I am confident that our staff is the most talented and dedicated in the nation. At RFC, our goal is to provide our borrowers with an excellent experience when they obtain a mortgage from us.
