SortRefer posts record-breaking July as broker demand surges

Published on

SortRefer, the Derby-based conveyancing and legal services platform, has reported its strongest month on record, with July 2025 marking a major milestone in the company’s growth trajectory.

The business, which also operates a branch in South Shields, posted its highest-ever performance across several key metrics, driven by strategic investment in technology, increased broker engagement and rising market demand.

Total instructions rose by 5%, while completions climbed 6% compared to previous monthly records.

Survey services saw particularly strong growth, with instructions jumping 15% and completions up 17% – both new company highs.

STANDOUT REGION

Scotland emerged as a standout growth region, recording the highest number of transactional instructions nationwide, reinforcing SortRefer’s expanding footprint across the UK.

Purchase and remortgage transactions also hit record instruction volumes, while independent legal advice services surged by 67% – the largest single-month increase in that category to date. July also saw the highest number of new registrations on the platform, reflecting its growing popularity among mortgage professionals.

The company’s loyalty and engagement programme, Sort Club, also reported its strongest performance of the year so far, with a record number of prizes awarded to introducers.

RECORD BREAKING

Kevin Tunnicliffe (main picture, inset), CEO of Sort Group, said: “We’re absolutely thrilled with July’s performance. Breaking this many records in a single month is a testament to the dedication of our incredible team and the loyalty of our broker partners.

“These results reflect not just strong market demand, but also the success of our strategic focus on technology, customer service, and broker engagement. We’re proud to be delivering the solutions intermediaries need in an ever-evolving marketplace.”
