- 269 signed up in August
- 978 signed up in September - a 360% increase
- 1,253 signed up in October - a further 28% increase.
Head of Business Development Tim Sturley believes this is due to two things: 'First, we improved our online offering with a 30-second Decision In Principle which, if it becomes a full application, is virtually guaranteed to become a mortgage offer. Second, the recent postal strike made intermediaries look at alternative ways of submitting business - they obviously liked what they saw and signed up.'
Mortgage Express is committed to continuing to develop its online services. 'We recognise that this is the way most business will be done in the future,' says Tim. 'And we intend to make sure our intermediaries and their customers are fully equipped to take advantage of advances in technology.'
Intermediaries can go to www.mortgage-express.co.uk to find out how to register and submit mortgages online.
