Because as much as 40% of your REO portfolio isn't vacant.

Nothing brings a well-oiled REO servicing machine to a screeching halt faster than an occupied asset – the time, resources, and energy spent on gaining possession aren’t just a drag on productivity, they’re a drag on the bottom line.

Symphony is a unique solution for occupied asset management that makes it possible for REO servicers to place their focus where any investor would want it: selling assets.

What is Symphony?

Symphony is a web-based platform for occupied REO that goes beyond case management and offers more than the standard eviction tracking functionality found in most default systems. It provides event management, workflow automation, quality assurance, and auditing capabilities that uniquely leverage Jackson & Associates' extensive background in post-foreclosure law.

Designed to work either independently of or in conjunction with existing default technology, clients who retain Jackson & Associates to manage their post-foreclosure legal matters nationwide are able to use Symphony to manage every aspect of occupied asset recovery – starting from initial assignment all the way through to vacancy.

Transparent and cross-functional
Gaining possession of an occupied asset requires flawless coordination across a set of disparate business functions:
  • legal process management: evictions, post-vesting bankruptcies, litigation, personal property issues
  • loss mitigation: cash-for-keys, sales to occupants
  • property preservation: regular vacancy checks, securing vacant properties, assessing code violations
In addition to providing integrated support for these business functions, Symphony makes it possible for everyone involved in property recovery – regardless of function – to share and manage information seamlessly using the same robust, unified platform. This approach means that Symphony users are a diverse group, including J&A clients, their outsourcers and/or or sub-servicers, as well as assigned brokers; involved investors; and formally recognized J&A co-counsel and their staff nationwide.

Innovative business intelligence
Symphony is backed by the industry’s largest post-foreclosure database, over 15,000 cases large and more than 500,000 data points in size. Patent-pending process models use this data to deliver the industry’s best business intelligence for occupied REO, including:
  • performance benchmarking for contested evictions, bankrupcy management, even litigation
  • reliable and accurate exception identification
  • dynamic and data-driven projections of time-to-completion that take individual case details into account

Why is a law firm developing technology like this?

In general, the default industry is largely defined by its relationship to the law: foreclosures, bankruptcies, litigation, evictions, title claims, even closings – all require the application of legal expertise that only a trained attorney can provide. In spite of this, the technology and systems most commonly used to manage default-related activities are developed and managed by firms whose primary business interests lie elsewhere.

At J&A, we’ve leveraged our unique and extensive legal expertise to develop the industry’s first specialized management platform for occupied asset recovery, built around a core understanding of how post-foreclosure legal process actually works. The result is a more cohesive, comprehensive technology that improves productivity, delivers better results, and provides an unprecedented level of control.
