Connect for Intermediaries has become the first network to provide its brokers with access to Legal & General Mortgage Club’s SmartrFit tool.
Member brokers at Connect will now be able to add the affordability calculator tool to their websites at a discounted rate.
By adding SmartrFit to their websites, brokers can support their customers with clear mortgage lending information to help inform their decisions. The L&G tool then generates leads that go directly into a broker’s CRM systems, shortening both the client capture process and the time it takes to provide advice.
Recent research undertaken by L&G Mortgage Club found that intermediaries currently save an average of 41 minutes per case by using SmartrFit. This figure equates to a timesaving of roughly one working month over the course of a year.
CEO of Connect, Liz Syms, commented: “L&G Mortgage Club has used in-depth research to come up with SmartrFit, which will be hugely valuable to our brokers. In fact, we believe that using SmartrFit at such a great price will pay for itself with the money saved from the first client that uses it each month.
“As a rapidly expanding network, we constantly aim to be at the forefront of new technology, using the best solutions in the market at any time to help our brokers to provide the best advice possible in the shortest time. It is for this reason that we want all of our brokers to have access to the SmartrFit solution at a price that is completely affordable, something that no other network is offering yet.”
L&G Mortgage Club head of broker propositions, Clare Beardmore, added: “SmartrFit is a fantastic resource that can really support brokers in their day to day work. The time savings it creates for brokers mean that they can spend more of their time doing what they do best – providing advice for their customers.
“It is testament to Liz’s foresight and understanding of the mortgage market that she recognises the advantage that the SmartrFit will provide both to the Connect network and all of its members.”
