Mortgage brokers could benefit from a new partnership between SortRefer and the Mortgage Advice Bureau (MAB).

The firms claims their new relationship will bring about “significant technological improvements” to the mortgage network’s conveyancing operation and make life easier for the 700 intermediaries who use its services.

SortRefer forms a part of the newly launched MAB Conveyancing service, which is being rolled out to members across the UK. MAB members are able to earn up to £300 per instruction.

Gareth Herbert, sales director of MAB, said: “We are delighted to be welcoming SortRefer onto our panel of specialist firms.

“As an organisation, MAB is committed to putting the intermediary and their customer at the forefront of our thinking. We work with those partners who share this important view.

“Conveyancing is an area where our members often experience a headache. They want to be able to use a service that is reliable, customer-centric, accessible and hassle-free. And that’s precisely what they will be able to get via our relationship with SortRefer.”

At the heart of the joint offering are easy-to-use online sales and administration tools that take the hassle out of organising conveyancing for a residential mortgage client. In addition,

“This is an important strategic alliance for us,” added SortRefer’s managing director, Kevin Tunnicliffe. “As an organisation, MAB mirrors our core value of putting the intermediary and their customer at the forefront of their thinking.

“We’re really pleased our online conveyancing service has been so well received by the intermediary community. It’s a service that’s been built by advisers for advisers, and we’ve put a lot of effort into creating an intelligent solution that is highly reliable and accurate.

“In the long term, our goal is to get every MAB member on board. But we’ll be very happy if we can get 200 firms and individuals signed up and using the site by the end of February.”
