The mortgage research and product sourcing platform, Legal & General Ignite, is now fully integrated with and freely accessible to users of Smartr365.
This new extended partnership will give Smartr365 users free access to Legal & General Ignite without being subject to any license fees.
Legal & General Technology head of product and transformation, Jodie White, stated that the partnering of Smartr365 marks another “important step” towards a fully streamlined mortgage journey as well as the “continued evolution” of its flagship tool.
She added: “With the help of Legal & General Ignite, advisers using Smartr365 will not only be able to focus more of their time on providing bespoke, quality advice to their clients, but it will also ensure they are reaching the best possible customer outcomes.”
Smartr365 users who select Legal & General Ignite as their sourcing provider will be able to pre-populate their searches with existing data.
Similarly, regulatory documents will be returned and saved in Smartr365 automatically, reducing the amount of time dedicated to administrative tasks.
Legal & General Ignite will also provide Smartr365 users with a sourcing solution, an integrated affordability calculator, product sourcing, and property-checking tools.
In addition, search results and documents generated in Legal & General Ignite will now be available to view on the Smartr365 platform.
Legal & General stated this will provide advisers with access to a “single source of truth” when advising their clients, thereby streamlining the mortgage journey.
Additionally, Smartr365 CEO and founder, Conor Murphy, said: “Our longstanding partnership with Legal & General continues to pay dividends for the adviser community.
“Smartr365 is already the platform of choice for just shy of 4,000 brokers in the UK, and partnerships such as this are driving further market adoption.
“Digitisation is key to unlocking the next stage of the mortgage market through heightened efficiency and improved customer satisfaction.
“This is another significant step in our partnership, with further exciting news to follow in the not-so-distant future.”
