Leeds Building Society is linking Lender Connect from Iress to its online mortgage platform. Lender Connect uses API technology to connect customer relationship management systems and Leeds Building Society’s Mortgage Hub platform. This results in less re-keying, a reduction in error rates and assistance with compliance oversight. Martese Carton, Head of Intermediary Distribution at Leeds Building Society, said: “Since launching Mortgage Hub with Iress last year, our mortgage application process has become more streamlined, saving everybody time amid some of the busiest months for lending in our history. “The user-friendly interfaces have simplified applications for both our colleagues and intermediary partners. Lender Connect further enhances the process, allowing many intermediaries to submit a case at the touch of a button, saving the need to re-key.”
