"Surveys are yet another string to the bow for brokers when advising clients. Many clients default to a lender’s mortgage valuation without realising they have options."
- Harpal Singh, CEO at conveybuddy
conveybuddy, the new conveyancing panel manager for mortgage brokers, has expanded its services by adding survey products in partnership with The Moving Portal.
This collaboration enables conveybuddy users to quote and instruct surveys through the conveybuddy online portal, offering brokers another tool when advising clients.
The Moving Portal manages a nationwide panel of Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) chartered surveyors.
Survey products now available via conveybuddy include RICS independent valuations, level 2 homebuyers reports, level 3 building surveys, and Help to Buy valuations.
Brokers using conveybuddy’s platform will also have the flexibility to choose their own referral fees on a case-by-case basis.
Harpal Singh, CEO at conveybuddy, commented: “Surveys are yet another string to the bow for brokers when advising clients. Many clients default to a lender’s mortgage valuation without realising they have options. Some may need more detailed insight into a property’s condition, while others - particularly Help to Buy borrowers - require specific valuations for remortgaging or selling.
“The Moving Portal was the obvious partner for this expansion. Their reputation in the broker market is stellar, as evidenced by glowing Trustpilot reviews. The integration between our platforms allows real-time data flow, making the entire process seamless for brokers. It only takes seconds to produce a quote on conveybuddy.com, so why not run one alongside your conveyancing quote?”
Mark Snape, chief growth officer at The Moving Portal, added: "We have extensive and proven experience of successfully working in this sector, so we are excited to be working with Harpal and the conveybuddy team, as they grow their presence in the broker sector. We place great value on providing the highest level of service to the mortgage intermediaries and look forward to forming new partnerships in this space.”
