The cloud-based provider of Enterprise Lending Services (ELS) to the mortgage industry, Optimal Blue, has announced that it has entered into a technology partnership with SimpleNexus. Optimal Blue's compliant pricing services will now be available to industry professionals and consumers through the SimpleNexus mobile platform. Having this blend of resource tools at their fingertips, loan officers will be more efficient in nurturing clientele and facilitating all phases of the loan process.
