E.surv Chartered Surveyors, the surveying business of the LSL Property Services Group, has renewed and expanded its relationship with Santander.

The bank and e.surv have worked together since the early 1990s, with the latter delivering residential valuations and property advice services, as part of the bank’s mortgage underwriting process.

The bank will widen its existing relationship with e.surv as a core valuation supplier but in addition will also now make use of a number of property attribute data sets created by the national valuer.

The bank will also receive general market intelligence on specific sectors such as new build.

The changes will support the bank’s goal of further streamlining processes and improving the journey for applicants, offering greater certainty to applicants and brokers alike.

Steve Goodall (pictured), e.surv’s managing director, said: “We are delighted to have once again updated our service proposition in support of the bank’s requirements and are looking forward to extending our relationship over a number of years.”
