Complete FS welcomes Fleet Mortgages onsite underwriter

10 September 2019

Complete FS, the specialist lending packager distributor, has announced the latest addition to its growing roster of onsite underwriters with the appointment of Wayne Fitzpatrick from Fleet Mortgages.

With underwriters from seven of Complete’s most important panel lenders, the inclusion of Fleet Mortgages further enhances the Complete proposition for introducers, who are able to discuss their enquiries and ongoing cases directly with the underwriter via Complete’s staff.

According to Director, Tony Salentino, while Complete FS already has one of the best rates for converting enquiries into completed business, the positive impact on conversions has improved still further due to the consistency that comes from introducers gaining access to the same underwriter onsite.

He said, “We are delighted to welcome Fleet Mortgages’ Wayne Fitzpatrick as our latest onsite underwriter. Fleet Mortgages has been a strong supporter of the intermediary sector and having Wayne here in our offices underlines the commitment Fleet is making to our business and growing reputation as a packager which most effectively converts enquiries into completed cases.

Tony added, “We are grateful to Fleet Mortgages for agreeing to send Wayne to join us. It takes our relationship to a new level. From all the evidence we have collated, the positive impact of an underwriter’s presence in house along with the access it gives our introducers makes our business proposition even stronger. We look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship with Fleet Mortgages.”

Bob Young, CEO at Fleet Mortgages commented, “Wayne has been a key part of the underwriting team at Fleet for over a year but as we are growing our number of packager and distributor relationships, we felt it was important for us to provide access to onsite underwriting expertise. I am delighted that Complete FS have invited Wayne in as their latest onsite underwriter, and they will now benefit from having access to him to develop their understanding of Fleet’s criteria and proposition, and having him on hand to ensure they get the best support for their buy-to-let cases.
