In brief

UCB Home Loans has extended its free valuation offer, available on its core range of mortgage products until 15 December.

The free standard valuation is available across UCB Home Loans’ entire core mortgage range of self-certification and buy-to-let products, for both purchase and remortgage applications, except on early repayment charge (ERC) free products.

Keith Astill, managing director at UCB Home Loans, said: “This offer has been extremely popular with customers and the feedback we have received from intermediaries has prompted us to extend the offer for a further two weeks”.

Mortgage Times Group enhances Trigold link-up

The Mortgage Times Group has announced a full integration with Trigold’s E-Trading Centre enabling intermediaries to access a Mortgage Times generic application form directly from Trigold’s Prospector AAA sourcing system.

Intermediaries accessing Mortgage Times products will be able to use Trigold's pre-population technology, which allows them to take the client information that is input during the search process, and transfer it in to the application form.
