Shawbrook quickens up service in October

Between September and October the bank quickened its business valuations from 19 days to 10, commercial valuations from 11.82 days to 10.61 and residential valuations from 8.85 days to 7.58.

The bank said its service has been improved with increased capacity in the valuation team.

Karen Bennett, sales and marketing director of commercial mortgages at Shawbrook Bank said: “It is encouraging to see the hard work of our broker partners and our team reflected in these latest figures.

“More than a year after first publishing these figures, we see them as an important part of our relationship with our brokers.

“With a busy end to 2015 ahead we’re hoping to continue the good work and remain as transparent as possible as we round out the year.”
