Exporting Borrowers and Contacts

Mortgage Quest allows you to export borrower and contact information to data files in various formats. Typically, you export data to a file that is then imported and used in a different program, such as Excel or a loan processing system. You can select any Mortgage Quest database field to export, including custom fields. However, you cannot export borrower or contact notes.
