Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The traditional loan preapproval process is time-consuming and requires multiple oral and written communications between potential buyers and financial institutions, often necessitating repeated efforts before obtaining preapproval for purchasing property.
Innovation Solution
A loan preapproval system that generates a preapproval token as a data structure with a price range and size range, based on user and property information, and transmits it to online marketplaces to facilitate purchase offers and loan requests, streamlining the process and reducing communication complexity.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of time
If traditional loan preapproval process is used, then loan preapproval can be obtained, but the process is time-consuming and requires multiple communications
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a simplified digital copy (token) of the loan preapproval status that can be transmitted and verified without requiring repeated full authentication cycles. The token contains essential preapproval information that can be presented to multiple lenders, eliminating the need for buyers to repeat their financial documentation and communications with each lender.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary credit evaluation and preapproval status determination before the actual loan application process. By establishing preapproval status in advance and encoding it in a token, the system prepares the borrower's financial credentials beforehand, so that when presenting to lenders, the time-consuming verification steps have already been completed.
2Reliability
If multiple communications are required for preapproval, then loan preapproval can be obtained, but the ease of operation deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a token as an intermediary carrier that holds and transmits preapproval information between the borrower, lenders, and verification systems. This token serves as a standardized medium that simplifies the interaction between multiple parties, allowing verification without direct repeated communications between all participants.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables borrowers to generate and present their own preapproval tokens without requiring manual verification requests to each lender. The token contains self-verifying information that allows lenders to independently validate preapproval status without requiring the borrower to initiate multiple communication cycles.
3Adaptability or versatility
If traditional preapproval process is repeated multiple times, then preapproval can be obtained for different properties, but the loss of time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal preapproval token that can be used across multiple property transactions and with multiple lenders. The token contains borrower credentials and preapproval status that are not property-specific, allowing the same token to be presented for different properties without requiring separate preapproval processes for each property.

An example method includes receiving, from an online marketplace server device, a preapproval request provided by a user for a loan preapproval to purchase a first property. The example method further includes obtaining credit information associated with the user from a credit server device. The example method further includes generating a preapproval data structure based on the preapproval request and the credit information. The example method further includes generating a preapproval token based on the generated preapproval data structure. Subsequently, the example method includes transmitting the generated preapproval token to the online marketplace server device.
