Paradigm relaunch expanded Conveyancer Panel

30 October 2018

Paradigm Mortgage Services, the mortgage services proposition, has today (30th October 2018) announced the relaunch of its expanded panel with three conveyancer managers.

Following a rigorous tender process, Paradigm is now offering member firms access to three conveyancing panel managers: eConveyancer (part of ULS Technology), When You Move and GOTO Group.

The expansion of the panel has been designed to offer members more choice and flexibility when it comes to recommending conveyancing services to clients and it allows advisers to generate extra revenue.

Paradigm’s conveyancing proposition is also included in its profit share scheme and members who use any of the three propositions will therefore also contribute to the central revenue fund which is shared each year.

eConveyancer provides a choice of over 100 UK-based solicitor firms and helps to streamline the end to end journey for customers. Advisers can generate quotes based on key selection criteria including price and service satisfaction ratings; it also offers online case tracking, regular email updates and a helpdesk available seven days a week. A cashback remortgage solution is also available as an alternative to lenders’ fee-assisted products.

When You Move offers a conveyancing platform and quoting engine that has been designed to help brokers connect with quality conveyancers, increase referral revenue and improve communication with end clients. It delivers tailored, detailed quotations from high-quality conveyancers, and allows advisers and their customers to track case progress through its digital, interactive transaction management system and mobile App.

GOTO’s conveyancing proposition is offered as part of its concierge service – it allows members to refer clients for conveyancing and has a single price band with advisers able to earn shop vouchers for each case, on top of the referral fee. There is a no completion, no fee option for clients (except for disbursements incurred on the client’s behalf), is open seven days a week and allows users to add their local solicitor to the panel.

John Coffield, Head of Paradigm Mortgage Services, commented:

“At Paradigm we’re committed to offering member firms access to choice and quality across all our ancillary services and, as a result, we have decided to develop and broaden our range of conveyancing options available to advisers. After a very competitive tender process we now have three panel managers available and believe eConveyancer, When You Move and GOTO Group are well-aligned with Paradigm and our member firms, and will offer all they need in terms of conveyancing options. We’re looking forward to working with all three and helping develop our members’ offering in a potentially lucrative area that will add further strings to their advice bow.”

Steve Goodall, CEO of ULS technology, said:

“We are delighted that Paradigm Mortgage Services has selected ULS Technology’s eConveyancer platform as a preferred conveyancing solution. We pride ourselves on offering an exceptional experience to both intermediaries and their customers and, are looking forward to delivering this to Paradigm and their members.”

Daniel Rodgers, Chief Revenue Officer at When You Move, said:

“The When You Move platform and app will benefit Paradigm mortgage brokers greatly, safe in the knowledge that they can access trusted conveyancers, effortlessly manage progress and receive live updates to further enhance the service they already provide their customers. As a distributor of choice for lenders, provider partners and brokers, we are looking forward to working closely with Paradigm. Our sole aim is to use technology to advance the conveyancing industry and we hope to enable a conveyancing service that reflects Paradigm’s outstanding reputation.”

Nigel Hoath, CEO of GoTo Group, said:

“GoTo are very pleased to be working with Paradigm; we are both forward-looking organisations. GoTo provide unique functionality such as ewelcome packs that enable transactions to be completed quicker, single price band which include our unique price promise plus you will receive vouchers (including Amazon) in addition to your referral fee. We look forward to Paradigm members benefiting from the GoTo platform.”
