Bridging lender Kuflink will enable introducers to instruct valuations on all their bridging cases.
The facility will be available from 1 June and brokers will be able to instruct through three panel valuation companies: Vas Group, Method Valuation UK, and Taylor Wilkinson.
Narinder Khattoare (pictured), CEO of Kuflink, said: “We listen to our brokers. In our latest request for feedback on our service, the predominant response was about being able to instruct valuations to help improve the turnaround time for cases. Well, they asked, and we have responded.
“This move gives introducers more control over their cases as well as simplifying our processing. Overall, this is a winning scenario all round.
“Our introducers just need to register with any one or all our panel managers to instruct valuations. We will then receive the completed report directly and be able to move to make an offer faster.”
