Accord Mortgages has become the latest lender to join Mortgage Brain’s multi-lender application and submission gateway, Lendex.

The lender joins Nationwide Building Society, Virgin Money, Coventry Building Society, and Platform on the Mortgage Brain platform.

The mortgage technology expert stated that Accord’s addition means brokers will now have access to five of the largest lenders in the UK, which is set to increase to eight over the coming months.

Lendex was made available to all mortgage advisers in February following an extensive pilot phase, and is fully integrated with Mortgage Brain’s online sourcing solution MortgageBrain Anywhere, alongside its CRM, The Key.

The integration with Accord has also been developed in collaboration with IRESS Lender Connect. This means mortgage advisers could save up to 20 minutes per case by being be able to pre-populate data from Mortgage Brain’s CRM or mortgage sourcing systems to Accord’s MSO platform to obtain a Decision in Principle (DIP), without the need for rekeying information.

Accord managing director, Jeremy Duncombe, commented: “We’re always looking for ways to improve our systems and processes to make things easier for brokers. Our MSO platform, together with Lendex, means placing cases with us will be much more efficient; speeding up the time taken to apply for a DIP.”

Mortgage Brain sales and marketing director, Neil Wyatt, added: “We know from the feedback that the time being saved submitting DIPs or carrying out full applications through Lendex is making a tangible difference to the workloads of mortgage advisers across the country.

“We are determined to transform the mortgage process for the better, and the fact that large lenders like Accord are backing innovations like Lendex demonstrates the progress already being made.”
