IRVINE, Calif.,\u00a0May 16, 2018\u00a0(SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) —\u00a0Cloudvirga<\/a>™, a leading provider of digital mortgage point-of-sale (POS) software whose enterprise technology is powered by the intelligent Mortgage Platform\u00ae, today announced the closing of a $50-million Series C funding round led by private-equity firm Riverwood Capital<\/a> (Riverwood) with ongoing participation from Upfront Ventures<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Cloudvirga\"
\nThe new funding will support Cloudvirga\u2019s mission to help lenders reduce record-high loan production costs<\/a> via automation and empower borrowers with greater transparency and engagement in the mortgage transaction.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe the material opportunity in the $1.6 trillion U.S. mortgage market lies in digitizing and automating not just the loan application, but the mortgage factory,\u201d said Cloudvirga CEO Michael Schreck. \u201cOur industry\u2019s current \u2018shiny object syndrome<\/a>\u2019 has resulted in a preoccupation with the digital application. Instead, Cloudvirga\u2019s technology uniquely tackles the mortgage cost problem, which has helped us garner tremendous interest from many of the country\u2019s top private-equity funds.\u201d<\/p>\n

Schreck added, \u201cUltimately, we found our ideal capital partner in Riverwood Capital, whose unique experience supporting rapidly growing fintech firms from both Silicon Valley and New York is a perfect fit for Cloudvirga. We are also grateful for Upfront Ventures\u2019 ongoing confidence in our company.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe mortgage market is one of the largest in the country, yet innovators are still nibbling on the edges of mortgage automation,\u201d said Riverwood executives Scott Ransenberg and Jay Schneider. \u201cCloudvirga has the right fusion of mortgage and technology DNA to transform the way lenders do business. Cloudvirga\u2019s blue chip customer base, which includes many of the largest and most sophisticated mortgage lenders in the country, is a testament to their unique end-to-end solution.\u201d With this funding, both Schneider and Ransenberg will join Cloudvirga\u2019s board of directors.<\/p>\n

Cloudvirga had previously raised over $27 million, including a nearly $20 million Series B led by Blackstone Group<\/a> (NYSE: BX<\/a>) portfolio company Incenter and a $7.5 million Series A led by Upfront Ventures, Tribeca Angels and Dallas Capital. Cloudvirga\u2019s total investment support now exceeds $77 million. DCS Advisory LLC acted as the exclusive financial advisor to Cloudvirga in connection with the current transaction.<\/p>\n
