  • What clients have been to your office for inspection?

    The only upside I have found with CFPB was clients traveling to me for once, a welcome change.

    Wells Fargo
    C.A.R.S. (they sent independent adjuster to inspect office and yards)
    Millennium (they sent independent adjuster to inspect office and yards)
    Chase has let me know they are coming, just no date.

    I have been told by a few vendor managers that we will come at the tail end as we are in a rural area (150 miles to the nearest large airport).

    What has your experience been?

        So far Wells is the only one to send an actual employee out with Chase to follow.
        The other two inspections were independent adjusters.

              Associations

                Wells Fargo And Regions both sent employees.

                Regions was VERY thorough, spent 31/2 hours on the inspection.

                Two other "Subcontractors" flew in and out like the wind.

                  Fowarders make too big of a deal for the little they pay.... For that reason they are not allowed to send us any work or bother to come by to our office..

                  Direct clients don't send someone to check if we are running our business correctly or to givme their opinion if we have sufficient staff... We give results and charge accordingly

                    With the CFPB enforcing regulations upon financial institutions, I believe site inspections of recovery agencies are going to become commonplace-be it from direct clients or forwarders. Site inspections provide an overview of the recovery agencies' background, reputation and compliance. They were not designed to tell you how to run your business, what to charge for your services or offer an opinion of any kind...merely to provide lenders a factual profile/brief report of who is working for them.

                    Whether we like it or not, it's a CYA for lenders!

                        Secure Collateral (SCM) had a 3rd party do a site inspection last year, was pretty standard, took maybe 45 minutes, was similar to Chase. They are a forwarder/skip company but pay same day and their rates are decent, i'm doing $325 invol. and $150 vol. although they pay even vol. at the invol. rate. Pretty fair.
