Mr. Cooper, the nation’s largest non-bank mortgage servicer, today announced that it has led the Series A funding round in Matic Insurance, a digital insurance agency whose technology enables homebuyers to obtain homeowner’s insurance seamlessly during the mortgage process .

 

“Buying insurance has long been a cumbersome process for homebuyers, so we’re excited for our licensed insurance agency, Harwood Service Company, LLC to work with Matic to provide customers a better experience,” said Jay Bray, Chairman and CEO of Nationstar Mortgage Holdings, the holdings company for the Mr. Cooper brand. “Integrating with Matic will help Mr. Cooper offer our customers a simplified insurance process that empowers them with more choice and the opportunity to save money on their homeowner’s insurance premiums.”

 

Matic’s insurance marketplace will enable Mr. Cooper to provide customers a convenient and modern way to shop for insurance while helping them obtain competitive insurance policy quotes and bind within minutes instead of days, all part of a digital mortgage application interface planned to launch in 2018.

 

“Mr. Cooper is one of the largest players in the home loan industry with a strong focus on the customer experience, and we are fully aligned with their mission to make the home buying and refinancing process an easier and better one for borrowers,” said Aaron Schiff, CEO of Matic. “Mr. Cooper’s customers will benefit from Matic’s ability to expedite loan closings and make it easier for Mr. Cooper to lower their borrower’s payments for improved payment performance.”
