➂

### Argyle delivers GSE-compliant report

Argyle sends a GSE-compliant report that includes a DU reference number and all of the components required to receive Day 1 Certainty.

➃

### DU® Validation

You provide DU with the reference number, and DU pulls in and validates the data from the Argyle report.

➄

### The final step

You deliver the loan file to Fannie Mae with the confidence of knowing you’re eligible for relief from representations and warranties on the validated loan components.

## Why Argyle

### Accuracy through permissioned data

#### Straight from the source

Direct-source income, employment, and asset verifications are consumer-permissioned and come from the system of record.

#### Accurate, real-time data

Argyle verifications don’t rely on data that comes from a database and there’s no time lag, so lenders can be confident in the accuracy and quality of the data they receive.

#### No expensive middleman

Other verification vendors buy data and pass those costs on to lenders. Direct-source solutions keep prices low by leveraging the principles of open finance.
