The Rise of AI — The Future of Mortgage

Everyone in the mortgage industry is wondering: what will the rise of Artificial Intelligence mean? There's no need to guess, since there's already one company that's been running on AI-powered systems since 2018. Sun West Mortgage's sister company, Celligence, created an AI underwriting and processing platform that Sun West has been using to power its company for the past five years. Underwriting is now measured in minutes, and processing tasks are primarily automated. This has allowed Sun West to make better loan decisions, expand credit to more communities, and free originators to spend more time building business rather than babysitting files. In the past year, Sun West has opened its system -- called Angel AI -- to the origination community at large, and backs loan decisions made by its system "100%" -- meaning that if an originator gets a green light from Angel AI, Sun West will commit to closing the loan, period. Don't miss this incredible session looking inside a large mortgage lender running its operations fully on artificial intelligence. The future is already here. So now the question is: what's next?

FAQ

How do I apply a promo code for my tickets?

If you have a promo code, there will be an option for you to put it in on the very last page before checkout. You must hit the button that says "Apply Promotion," which will complete your reservation if you have a free code. Please DO NOT put in your credit card information.

Can I register other people?

Yes, you can register up to 10 NMLS licensed originators. Please input every registrant's individual information, as we use this information to create the name badges and check in at registration on the day of the event.

Can I visit the exhibit hall if I am not registered?

Unfortunately, no. You must register to have access to any part of the show at any point.

Can I attend even if I don't have an NMLS number?

The show is primarily designed for NMLS licensees. Processors and underwriters may use their company NMLS number. Others without an NMLS number (or non-active NMLS licensees) may attend, but have to register as a paid non-exhibiting vendor. If you don't have an NMLS number but you don't think you are a vendor, please reach out to us. Show producers have the right to determine final eligibility.

I am a sponsor or exhibitor, where can I find the toolkit and exhibiting information?

The exhibitor information is sent to the email provided during the registration or purchase of a booth or sponsorship. Please check this email for information about access to our exhibitor toolkit. If you need this information resent, please email info@ambizmedia.com for assistance.

I registered for the show but not the continuing education class, can I still take it?

Unfortunately, we cannot add or modify an existing registration. Class space is limited and you must pre-register to allow us to get an accurate head count. We are often able to accommodate requests made on the day of the show because some registrants will cancel or otherwise not participate. But only pre-registered attendees are guaranteed access to the class.
