GOVERNMENT CLAIMS MANAGEMENT

CRFS is the industry leader in FHA, VA, and USDA claims processing outsourcing and consulting.  Founded in 2002 with a focus on timely claim filing, maximizing recovery, and reducing losses, the company has grown from a team of one in 2002 to roughly 200 employees. Over the past 15 years we’ve developed a proven process, filing thousands of claims each month and recovering hundreds of millions of dollars per year for our clients.  We’re committed to building strong client relationships by delivering quality workmanship and fast, efficient service.

Servicers and Investors engaged with CRFS are already experiencing the following benefits:

Greater Financial Recoveries

CRFS has a demonstrated history of successfully onboarding claims processing previously performed by other parties. A key competitive differentiator created through CRFS’ years of experience in the default and claims processing space, is the evaluation of allowable timeline extensions. Timeline extensions are valid reasons for which HUD reimburses additional interest and preservation expenses.

CRFS has been able to quantify the impact our expert knowledge has in identifying, justifying and documenting these extensions:

CRFS Others Increase
Claims with Extensions 30-35% 20-25% 10-15%
Avg. Length of Extensions 8 months 6 months 2 months

Given that the average monthly cost of curtailed interest and preservation expenses is $800 per loan, any extension significantly improves your recovery. The extra recovery generated by partnering with CRFS more than covers the cost of our service.

Reduced Audit Risk

CRFS provides a standard level of HUD Audit support to every client, and we’re proud to report that our clients experience minimal HUD Audit findings when we’re engaged on an Audit project.
