Connect My Account to Optimal Blue

Overview

The Integrations settings allow for you to set up a variety of the integrations that are available with Floify.

 

Among these settings, you'll have access to connect your account to Optimal Blue.

 

How to Set Up and Use

The Optimal Blue Integration will require some additional set up steps with Optimal Blue and Floify. Please reach out to support@floify.com first in order to have us point you in the right direction.

 

Please note that the Optimal Blue integration is only available with the Optimal Blue PPE accounts, not LoanSifter PPE.

 

From your team pipeline, navigate to Settings and select the Integrations tab:

Borrower Rate Sharing

Lenders can browse rates from Optimal Blue and share those rates directly with potential borrowers, including estimates for taxes, HOA fee, etc. to provide a reasonably accurate estimate of their final payments in their new home.

 

When you hover over a row, you will see some buttons appear near the right hand side. Among these, you will see an option to Share With Borrower:

This will allow you to add additional notes and opt to email the borrower(s) a link to Floify:

This email will then forward them to the loan flow page and allow then to select the option to view their estimated payment:
