Hodge launches online services for intermediaries

Hodge has launched a website and broker portal which will allow intermediaries to place and manage all mortgage cases for residential, retirement and holiday let products online in one place .

The lender has also launched a fresh-look intermediary website with the support of specialist WordPress agency, Illustrate Digital.

The build of the broker portal has been undertaken by Hodge’s inhouse team of developers and digital experts and every step of the process has been informed by broker research and input.

Mark Evans, chief technology officer at Hodge, said: “This is a significant step forward for Hodge, with the portal being central in allowing intermediaries to access our products and services in an easy and convenient fashion.

"Hodge is a well-established business but in the past few years we’ve made enormous strides, not only in terms of how we do business, but also in the ways that we work.

“The intermediary portal is a really key building block for us, as we strive to make it easier for intermediaries to access our growing range of innovative products.

"Building the platform ourselves has freed us of many constraints that limit our ability to offer an excellent customer experience. It has also opened up further opportunities for innovation. As our inhouse digital delivery capability has grown, so too has our determination to make our processes better and simpler for brokers.”
