Instant time-savings aside, Scott is looking forward to seeing the longer-term benefits of using Lender Connect, especially as more lenders join the service.

“We are live with three lenders and working with a fourth. We aim to submit all applications for these lenders through Lender Connect. We achieve good population levels and while not 100% completed, using Lender Connect represents significant time savings for our team. We’d like to see more lenders available to add even greater benefit from the work we’ve put in.”

“Iress has a great team and is really supportive. We’re part of the Lender Connect Forum, which is a good way of working directly with Iress to shape the technology the industry needs. Integrations like these are always chicken and egg - distributors want more lenders, and lenders want more distributors, so both sides can help fuel the growth. We all need to keep working together to improve the mortgage journey and drive greater benefit to everyone involved.”
