BuildLoan has announced the launch of a new self and custom build mortgage platform for brokers.
The online portal, named Unicus, will facilitate mortgage intermediaries’ transactions for their self build, custom build, renovation and conversion customers, and help brokers to provide more accurate advice on available products.
Brokers will have access to information such as upfront cashflow requirements, stage payment schedules and customer application progress trackers, BuildLoan stated, with the platform providing real-time accurate information on specialist mortgage products.
The specialist finance provider confirmed that brokers will be supported with comprehensive training materials, including tutorials and guides, research insights and access to a team of expert advisers.
BuildLoan chief operating officer, Julian Foster, commented: “This type of specialist lending can present significant challenges to clients, brokers and lenders.
“Before Unicus, brokers faced substantial obstacles stemming from inaccurate information being provided to them from traditional sourcing systems. This, in turn, affected the quality of the information and the product advice they offered to their clients.”
Foster added: “Unicus is beneficial for everyone involved – the broker, the client, the lender, networks and mortgage clubs and our own staff, as it offers a comprehensive portal with full end-to-end visibility coupled with first-class resources and information.”
