Is BSI a mortgage loan servicer?

BSI Financial Services is primarily a loan servicer, approved as a servicer for Feddie Mac, VA, Fannie Mae, FHA, and Federal Home Loan Banks in addition to private investors.

A Loan Servicer may manage loans that they themselves lent, or loans made by other companies.

BSI is also a direct lender approved by Ginnie Mae. A direct lender is the financial institution that loans you money. A lender may choose to loan money and service the loan thereafter, but they do not have to.

Is BSI a debt collector?

BSI is not a debt collector. A debt collection company purchases delinquent debt from mortgage lenders at a fraction of the value and then proceeds to profit by trying to get repayment in full. 

However, BSI is a loan servicer so they will still contact you and follow up regarding repayments until your mortgage is paid in full.
