OMS forms partnership with Countrywide Home Surveys

15 April 2025

One Mortgage System (OMS), the seamless single-input enquiry to completion processing platform for brokers, has announced a partnership with Countrywide Home Surveys, part of Countrywide Surveying Services.

This integration will provide OMS users with a bespoke referral service, providing a friendly, professional concierge service supporting clients every step of the way with competitive survey fees, access to over 400 qualified surveyors nationwide, and generous referral fees paid to the broker.

Consumer research recently conducted by Countrywide Surveying Services (CSS) and Pegasus Insight, showed that 88% of consumers who used a home condition survey said they would do so again. Additionally, 92% of respondents reported that their survey gave them peace of mind, further highlighting the importance and value attached to independent property assessments.

The research also found that 60% of home condition surveys uncovered previously unknown property issues, a key factor in helping buyers to avoid unexpected costs and post purchase complications.

OMS is the only end-to-end platform which covers such a wide range of product areas including residential, buy-to-let, second charge, equity release, bridging, commercial plus general insurance, and protection. It is integrated with market-leading providers – Ignite, Submissions Brain, The Source, Twenty7Tec, iPipeline, Hometrack, Experian, Equifax, Uinsure, Air Sourcing and Knowledge Bank – to provide users with best in class for product sourcing, protection sourcing and criteria searching.

Jodie Andrews, Head of Marketing and Partnerships at One Mortgage System (OMS), commented:

“Our partnership with Countrywide fills an important gap in terms of the partnerships we offer our users and so we’re delighted to partner with one of the leading surveying firms in the sector and offer users a bespoke referral service.

“With over £1.5bn of lending transacted by our users each month, I am sure this new partnership will prove popular. In addition, we will be holding a webinar with Countrywide to launch the partnership and brokers can register here.”

Helen Stead, Head of Countrywide Home Surveys, Countrywide Surveying Services, said:

“We’re delighted to partner with OMS, as brokers are obviously a fundamental element in the homebuying process for the majority and so helping brokers and their clients understand the value of a survey/condition report is something we are keen to develop and promote.

“Many borrowers don’t know the difference between a Mortgage Valuation and a survey and so we wish to ensure good financial outcomes for as many customers as possible, especially as it’s a key component to Consumer Duty.”
