Countrywide Surveying Services (CSS) has renewed its agreement with Pure Retirement to continue acting as the lender’s lead valuer.

The renewed deal will see CSS maintain responsibility for delivering valuation services to support Pure Retirement’s later life lending activity across the UK.

The valuation panel management and property risk services provider said the renewal reflects the ongoing collaboration between the two organisations and their shared focus on maintaining high professional standards, strong risk oversight and consistent service delivery within the later life lending market.

Managing director at CSS, Matthew Cumber, stated: "Later life lending has become an increasingly important part of the mortgage landscape, and with that comes the need for valuations that combine local insight with a clear understanding of lender risk frameworks.

"Our role is to provide the kind of consistency and reliability that lenders depend on when making long-term lending decisions. Continuing our work with Pure Retirement allows us to build on a relationship where there is a strong alignment around quality, professional judgement and delivering dependable outcomes across a wide range of property types."
