In 1988, the National Association of Mortgage Field Services was created by a handful of professionals throughout the mortgage field services industry. The original intent of the Association was to provide its members with a cohesive voice with investors and others integral to the industry. Since its inception, the Association has expanded upon its initial objectives to include:

• Nurturing the Mortgage Real Estate Field Service system
• Improving and expanding the performance of its members
• Encouraging sound and ethical business practices among its members
• Conducting research in field service techniques that improve the effectiveness of its members
• Informing its members of changes in mortgage laws and practices as well as pending legislation that affects their service
• Sponsoring meetings and educational programs
• Cooperating with public and private agencies in the establishment of sound field service practices
