AGOURA HILLS, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Apr 3, 2008 -- Interthinx, Inc., the leading provider of proven risk mitigation and regulatory compliance tools for the mortgage industry, has been selected by iFreedom Direct Corporation to perform automated high cost and covered loan reviews during the loan origination process. Interthinx was chosen to ensure loans are in compliance with various consumer protection laws including all federal, state and local anti-predatory lending requirements.

iFreedom Direct, a leader in the mortgage industry since 1985, provides loans for purchase, refinance, and FHA/VA streamline -- from zero down payment to low credit score loans. "We implemented Harland's Interlinq E3 loan origination system and did not want to write and maintain a loan testing program. So we selected an Interthinx solution which is compliant with all regulations and provides a seamless interface to our users," stated Becky Hersh, vice president of quality control for iFreedom. "Interthinx was flexible and highly responsive to our various system requirements. Their integration team also demonstrated extensive knowledge of laws governing state and federal testing requirements, providing yet another level of assurance during the integration process."

PredProtect(SM) from Interthinx is a feature-rich automated compliance solution, updated with every federal, state and local predatory lending law and many consumer loan laws. Within seconds, the system automatically compares individual loan data to applicable laws, warning end-users of rate and fee threshold violations, federal Truth-In-Lending Act violations, state consumer loan laws failures, and much more.

"Many executives don't realize the extent to which compliance violations impact profitability," added Roger Fendelman, Esq., vice president of Compliance for Interthinx. "Throughout the greater part of this decade, Interthinx has proven that the use of PredProtect dramatically reduces exposure to costly loan buybacks, borrower reimbursements and license examination failures, all of which are a drag on extremely tight profit margins. The unique strength of PredProtect automation through the Harland loan origination system lies in its ability to perform instant compliance reviews on every loan without disrupting the origination process."
