Mortgages platform LendInvest has brought out a broker dashboard to speed up the time it takes to fetch case information and to streamline the case management experience.
Brokers are now able to find information about their deal almost five times faster while more easily being able to retrieve a case and submit a decision in principle (DIP) or enquiry.
Paula Mercer (pictured), head of sales at LendInvest, said: “This launch marks more than just a technological leap; it’s a tailored response to the needs of the industry, offering a superior, streamlined application and case management experience.
“We’ve listened closely to our brokers and used their feedback to deliver a tool that not only accelerates but also enriches the mortgage journey for brokers and clients alike, setting new benchmarks for quality and efficiency in the digital mortgage space.”
A broker involved in Beta testing added: “As somebody who’s processing a lot of cases you need to know exactly where you are and what stage you’re at [in a case]. In this [portal] everything’s already there.”
