HYDERABAD, INDIA: Lender Processing Services Inc., a leading provider of innovative technology, services, data and analytics to the mortgage and real estate industries today announced the opening of its mortgage technology services facility in India. The company handles about 50 percent of all US mortgages by dollar value.

LPS acquired an office in Hyderabad as part of its acquisition of LendingSpace in 2012.
