Working With Tasks

When working properties in Equator, most activity will be centered around tasks.  Tasks are forms that Servicers need to be completed – generally soliciting information on the property, or documents pertaining to the property.  On your “Tasks” page, you can view your tasks that need to be completed, along with the date of assignment and completion date (if applicable). Each task is color coded so you can easily view which tasks are new, nearing their due date, or past due.  Agents should always try to complete tasks as soon as possible.  These tasks are part of your track record for Servicers, so completing them as promptly as possible demonstrates your professionalism.

 

You can view any open tasks in your Equator account by locating the Message-Task-Offer dashboard under the menu headers. If it says 0 tasks, you do not have any tasks to complete.  If it says # task(s), click on it to view your open tasks.

 

You may open any task by clicking on the task name.  You should also make note of the task color, which indicates the status of your task:

 

Green: New task, incomplete

Yellow: Task nearing due date, incomplete

Red: Overdue task, incomplete

Grey: Complete

 

For a completed (grey) task, Due/Completed Date indicates the date you completed the task.  For an incomplete (green, yellow, or red) task, the Due/Completed Date indicates the date the task is due. 

 

Once you have completed a task please be sure to select the ‘Save and Submit Now’ button at the bottom of the task to send your information to the Servicer.  Agents can always access previously completed tasks by going to the property page and clicking on “Tasks”.  This provides you a record of everything you have completed on a particular property, and lets you view when the task was completed.

Hello Susan,

Each Servicer works with Equator to decide what the timelines will be on each of their tasks. This means that in the system each task is set for a certain number of days. If the task is not completed within that set amount of days then the task shows as past due.  In some instances the Servicer is able to pause the tasks if there are circumstances that prevent the agent from being able to complete the task on time, but this would be at the discretion of the Negotiator and they would only be able to do so on certain tasks. It is always best to discuss the task with the property Negotiator (before the task becomes overdue) if the agent is unable to complete the task  on time to see how the Servicer would like to proceed.
