Why RegWatch

Mortgage lending compliance is not one rulebook.

Requirements and guidance are spread across federal agencies, state regulators, licensing systems, housing programs, enterprise publications and security authorities. RegWatch brings the sources you select into a consistent monitoring and review process.

Scattered regulatory sources

Updates may appear in regulations, official interpretations, bulletins, examination materials, program handbooks, state notices and licensing communications.

State-by-state licensing complexity

Multi-state lenders may need different watchlists for company licenses, mortgage loan originator requirements, renewals and state-specific operating rules.

Policies and procedures can lag

Teams need a repeatable way to connect changes with origination, fair lending, disclosures, quality control, servicing, privacy and security procedures.

Too much noise, too little context

A raw alert is not enough. Reviewers need the source, relevant dates, affected topics and a clear path for ownership and follow-up.

Monitoring Coverage

Build a watchlist around how your mortgage business actually operates.

Select the jurisdictions, channels, products, licenses and program sources that matter to your organization. Expand or refine coverage as your footprint and obligations change.

Talk to Allgress
Which mortgage lending requirements can RegWatch monitor?

Organizations can select relevant federal, state and program sources, including CFPB mortgage regulations, fair lending requirements, HMDA materials, state licensing authorities, NMLS-related sources, selected FHA, VA, USDA and enterprise guidance, privacy and cybersecurity requirements, and financial-crime materials. Available coverage depends on the selected monitors and sources.

Can we use RegWatch without uploading policies?

Yes. RegWatch can be used for regulatory monitoring and organized change summaries without policy uploads. Policy uploads are optional and support policy assessment workflows when your team chooses to use them.

Can a multi-state mortgage company monitor different state requirements?

Yes. A watchlist can be organized around the states, licenses, channels, products and business activities your organization selects.

Can RegWatch monitor investor and government program guidance?

Selected program and investor sources can be included when available, such as FHA Mortgagee Letters and Handbook updates, VA lender materials, USDA guidance, and Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac seller-servicer publications. Coverage depends on the monitors and sources selected.

How does policy assessment work?

Your team can assign uploaded policies and procedures to selected monitors. When a monitored source changes, RegWatch can help identify areas that may require review, clarification or remediation.

Does RegWatch determine which requirements legally apply?

No. Your organization determines applicability. RegWatch provides regulatory intelligence, workflow support and optional policy assessment assistance; it does not provide legal advice or replace legal, compliance or audit professionals.
