For Lenders

Stop Wasting Time on
Half-Baked Deal Packages

A broker sends you a package. You start reviewing. Ten minutes in you realize the T-12 is missing. Upload it to Groundstone first. Know what is missing in seconds. Draft one complete requirements email. End the back-and-forth before it starts.

Two Problems That Waste Your Time

Most deal packages that hit your desk have issues. And even when you find them, communicating what you need creates more delays.

Problem 1: Incomplete Packages

  • Analyst starts reviewing and discovers missing rent roll halfway through
  • Operating statement only covers 6 months instead of 12
  • No sponsor PFS or schedule of real estate
  • Time wasted before knowing if deal is even worth looking at

Problem 2: The Email Chase

  • Find one missing document. Email broker. Wait 3 days.
  • Find another issue. Email again. Wait another week.
  • Borrower gets frustrated at multiple requests
  • A deal that could close in weeks drags for months

Check Everything. Send One Email.

Upload the package you received. Groundstone reads everything, identifies what is missing or outdated, and drafts a complete requirements email. One workflow. No more piecemeal requests.

Upload the Deal Package

Drag and drop the files you received from the broker or sponsor. PDFs, Excel files, whatever they sent. No reformatting required.

AI Reads and Inventories Everything

Groundstone identifies what documents are included: rent roll, operating statements, appraisal, sponsor financials, purchase agreement. It extracts key details and checks document dates.

3

See What Is Missing or Outdated

A clear report shows what you have and what you need. Missing rent roll? Flagged. Operating statement only covers 6 months? Noted. Sponsor PFS dated 2023? Highlighted.

Draft One Complete Requirements Email

Tell the AI: "Draft an email listing everything the borrower needs to send." It generates a professional, organized requirements list. Copy, paste, send. The borrower knows exactly what you need before you will look at their deal again.
