Who should attend?
The content, session, networking and activities at ANSWERS are designed for ALFN members, both law firms and foreclosure trustees and associate members, as well as our servicer and financial institution partners. Our key lines of content focus on residential mortgage servicing, default loan resolution and various new regulatory, legislative and compliance-related issues.
How many people can I expect?
ANSWERS is a mid-sized event. Attendance is limited to ALFN members and mortgage servicers, GSE's and investors. ANSWERS typically attracts around 270+ mortgage servicing and legal professionals. For a copy of the ANSWERS past attendees, contact us at [email protected].
What kind of networking is available?
While ANSWERS offers sophisticated content and education, we strive to create a comfortable and casual learning and networking environment, hosting this event in upscale destination resort locations each July. We offer dinners each evening and numerous off-site relationship-building activities to explore the local area with other attendees.

You can leave the business attire at home and enjoy a more casual and comfortable conference experience at ANSWERS!
Dress in Layers - The weather will be around 66 for the low and 80 for the high. In addition, the ballrooms indoors are typically cooler, so if you are prone to getting cold indoors, please bring a coat, gloves, parka, hat etc... to stay warm in the indoor meeting areas. We do our best to try and make everyone comfortable, but even with that half of our attendees will be cold, and the other half will be hot, so dress in layers accordingly.
Evening Dinners Outdoors - Our evening receptions and dinners are outdoors from 6:30-8:30 PM. We recommend you dress accordingly in layers and bring a jacket if you wish for any possibly cooler or windier evening weather. Use your best judgment and wear whatever you are most comfortable wearing with the forecasted weather conditions.
Outdoor Group Activities - If you are participating in any of the outdoor activities, please dress accordingly based on the forecasted weather conditions. We will be sending separate emails to all activity participants with additional details and reminders, but you can access all of the information you need about our group activities here. It is required to sign-up for group activities prior to the conference, and we are unable to make switches or additions to activities onsite. This due to the fact that many activities sell out well in advance of the conference, and our activity vendors require committed number of participants on each activity several weeks in advance. Contact us at [email protected] if you have a question about our group activities.

What will I learn?
This year we have general sessions, guest keynote speakers, members-only sessions, servicer-only sessions and panel presentations so attendees can teach as much as they learn. Check the ANSWERS schedule and session overviews for the descriptions of what each session will be covering.
How does ANSWERS compare to other events?
ANSWERS is a more casual and enjoyable event than the other more hurried and larger events in our industry where you get lost among the crowd. ANSWERS is designed around building lasting relationships with other attendees in a beautiful resort setting. We are proud to continue connecting ALFN members and servicers to each other to explore business opportunities, as well as offering world-class education at this annual event. You don't have to take our word, though, come and see for yourself!
