Due to the success of the trial, Skipton will immediately instruct standard valuations when it receives all complete purchase and remortgage cases from brokers.
Alongside this development, Skipton has extended the hours of its e-mortgage service to allow its broker partners to use the online site to submit complete cases up to 10pm.
Paul Darwin (pictured), Skipton’s director of intermediary relationships, said: “We wanted to trial something that would make a difference to our broker partners and we believe the introduction of the day-one mortgage valuations and extended online hours has enabled us to do that and provide them with a service that best suits their needs.”
Gerry Dupree, managing director of Gerry Dupree, said the service was ideal for his new-build clients who need to act quickly once they have made an application.
