Loan Servicing

Definition

Loan servicing is the day-to-day management of a loan after it's made — taking payments, tracking the balance, and handling questions.

Technical definition

Loan servicing is the administration of a loan after origination, including payment collection, recordkeeping, escrow management, and borrower communication.

Why it matters

Who services your loan affects your ongoing experience — where you send payments and who you contact if circumstances change.

Example

The institution you send your monthly payment to is handling loan servicing.
