Kensington launched a new app for intermediaries at the Mortgage Business Expo in London today.

The Kensington ToolKit is an app made up of a collection of mortgage calculators that, once loaded onto a smartphone or tablet, will be accessible from anywhere and without the need for an internet connection.

These include:

• Affordability calculator providing an indicative amount Kensington may be able to lend given an applicant’s income and outgoings
• Criteria calculator providing a simple step by step indication of whether Kensington may be able to lend.
• Buy-to-Let calculator providing guidance as to the rental income required for an applicant to achieve a desired loan amount.
• Contact details for brokers to contact Kensington directly through the app either by phone or email.

The app will is available for download by intermediaries from the Google Play and iTunes app stores.

Steve Griffiths, head of sales and distribution at Kensington, said: “At Kensington we’re always trying to make our brokers’ lives easier, so we’ve created the Kensington ToolKit App.

“A fantastically quick and easy way to give your clients topline figures, the Kensington ToolKit App keeps all the calculators and tools you need in your pocket, accessible anywhere, anytime even without an internet connection.”
