JACKSONVILLE, Fla., July 30, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Black Knight, Inc. (NYSE:BKI) announced today that the  Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency (PHFA) signed a multi-year contract to use LoanSphere MSP, Black Knight's industry-leading servicing system. Headquartered in Harrisburg, Pa., PHFA serves the people of Pennsylvania by offering affordable housing resources, including loans and tax credits for the construction of affordable rental housing. PHFA selected MSP for its comprehensive functionality and support for regulatory compliance, and to increase efficiencies as the organization continues to grow. 

As part of the agreement, PHFA will also implement LoanSphere Servicing Digital, a powerful, interactive mobile solution providing detailed, timely and highly personalized information to PHFA customers about the value of their homes and how much wealth can be built from these real estate assets. This consumer-centric tool delivers useful information specific to the consumer's mortgage, property and local housing market by accessing the servicing data via Black Knight's MSP system.

"PHFA looks forward to working with Black Knight as we continue on our mission of providing capital for decent, safe and affordable homes for older adults, people on moderate incomes and others with special housing needs," said Brian A. Hudson Sr., PHFA executive director and CEO. "We believe the company's technology provides the capabilities and support that will allow us to focus on growing our operations and improving the customer experience, while helping us maintain compliance."

MSP offers a robust and scalable end-to-end loan servicing system that helps clients manage all servicing processes – from payment processing to escrow administration, customer service, default management and more. The system can accommodate any size portfolio, and is augmented by the company's award-winning client support services. Used to service more than 34 million active loans across the U.S., MSP helps servicers increase operational efficiency, reduce operating costs and improve risk mitigation. 

PHFA will also implement LoanSphere Expedite's electronic signature and document fulfillment capabilities; data and analytics; and suite of LoanSphere default servicing applications.

"We are pleased to provide a comprehensive, integrated approach to meeting PHFA's servicing needs," said Joe Nackashi, president of Black Knight. "MSP and our other innovative offerings provide the deep and broad functionality necessary to support PHFA's future growth, regulatory compliance and an improved customer experience. Our flexible, scalable technology is now being used by multiple state housing authorities, as well as financial institutions of all sizes across the U.S., to help them manage their operations more efficiently and improve service to their customers."
