SortRefer has reported a surge in intermediary activity following the launch of its new website in January.

In the past month, the number of introducers registered with the site has increased by over 20% and the number of instructions is more than 100% up against the same period last year.

The site offers intermediaries residential conveyancing deals and, in addition, advisers can refer and earn from commercial conveyancing, residential and commercial surveys, specialist property reports and energy performance certificates.

Kevin Tunnicliffe, managing director of SortRefer, said: “We are thrilled. We spent a long time developing the site to ensure that when we started to promote it more widely, we would be in a position to deliver. We knew that those advisers who were with us already valued our proposition, but to have so many new registrations and instructions coming in in the first month has re-enforced our conviction that we’ve got it right. The feedback from these new introducers has been very complimentary.

“We invite any of the advisers out there to get a quote from us and see how we compare against their existing supplier.

“But it’s obviously not just about price – of even more importance is the level of service given to both the introducer and their clients. Coming from a broker background ourselves, we know just how vital this is.”
