Skipton launches intermediary website

The site - www.skipton-intermediaries.co.uk - will enhance the existing communication lines with Skipton's brokers all around the UK.

This new site includes downloadable mortgage application forms and gives brokers easy access to the Society's products and lending criteria. Other features include a section profiling the benefits of dealing with Skipton and mortgage calculators, to enable intermediaries to work out how much their clients can afford to borrow.

Commenting on the new site, Paul Darwin, head of intermediary lending, said, "We are delighted to extend our user-friendly website with the launch of a service specifically designed for our intermediary contacts. The site is easy to navigate and will give brokers up to date information about the Society's current intermediary products and services, 24/7. By cutting down on administrative detail, brokers will be saving time, which will be of considerable benefit and make it even easier for them to do business with Skipton Building Society."
