Richmond, Virginia – LandAmerica Financial Group, Inc. (NYSE: LFG), a leading provider of real estate transaction services, through its credit reporting service subsidiary Info1 Holding Company, Inc. (Info1), announces its agreement with Freddie Mac to integrate Info1 directly as an additional credit reporting resource. Specifically, Info1 now offers credit reporting services to mortgage lenders and mortgage brokers using Freddie Mac’s automated underwriting system, Loan Prospector®.

“We’re pleased to add Info1 to our roster of credit reporting companies easily accessed through our Web-based Loan Prospector service,” said Marcia Davies, Vice President – Product Marketing and Communications for Freddie Mac.

“We are delighted to be added as a new credit information provider to the Loan Prospector system,” added Ken Goins, President – Info1. “Our new relationship with Freddie Mac will allow our company to expand its market share through direct access to Loan Prospector.”
