CMBS Leads is launched; now off to the Big Easy

CMBS Leads launched on Friday! It feels great to have the launch push behind us. Now we can focus on selling!

This week I’m headed to New Orleans for the MBA Commercial/Multifamily Servicing and Technology Conference. I am speaking on three panels:

1. MISMO® – Data Standards for the Brave New World of Transparency & Efficiency

2. Where can Investors get their data

3. The Future of Reporting

At the MISMO panel, we will announce our support of IRP 6 plus our own initiative to promote data standards. The other two panels should provide opportunity to debate how we use data to help solve the credit crisis. In last week’s pre-calls preparing for the panels, it was clear not everybody was on board with my views so, hopefully, the sessions will be entertaining.

We will also have a booth at the conference where we will be demoing Backshop, CMBS Leads, CMBS Investor, and our next tool: a MISMO-compliant XML reporting tool that takes feeds from servicing systems and allows primary servicers to report upstream in XML compliant format.

Stay tuned for the latest developments from the Big Easy.
