Boundary-breaking innovator and founder of pioneering mortgage investor reporting software selected for prestigious housing industry prize

PMSI, the loan industry’s trusted partner for data-driven residential mortgage investor reporting and accounting, today announced that PMSI Founder and President Romalene Tolentino has been selected as a 2025 HousingWire Vanguard. The awards recognize industry professionals and business leaders who have become experts in their respective fields, and whose leadership is moving markets forward each and every day.

At the age of 29, Romalene overcame systemic bias in a field traditionally dominated by men to shatter industry norms by founding PMSI, the leading provider of automated investor accounting and reporting technology for the mortgage industry. Twenty-five years later, PMSI provides automated investor reporting for roughly 3.5 million residential mortgage loans and is the largest consumer of government-sponsored enterprise data in the industry. Tolentino’s business philosophy, rooted in the recognition that reputation matters in the close-knit investor reporting world, has always emphasized the people component of business.

“It is my great honor to represent PMSI as a HousingWire Vanguard in 2025,” said Tolentino. “HousingWire is one of the most trusted sources for housing market intelligence, and represents the diligence, incisiveness, and integrity that have been my guiding principles in founding and leading PMSI. I hope my selection as a Vanguard inspires other leaders to break down barriers and fearlessly pursue their goals and look forward to cheering on their successes in the future.”

The HousingWire Vanguards recognize leaders of businesses contributing to the growth of the housing economy and its various sectors, including lending, servicing, investments, and real estate. These leaders come from diverse backgrounds, and may run established companies or start-ups, but share one common trait: an unmistakable impact on the industry at large. Every year, a wide range of leaders apply for consideration for this unique and powerful recognition, one of the only of its kind in the industry. Romalene and her fellow honorees will be profiled on the HousingWire site and will receive ongoing recognition on HousingWire.com.
