Intermediary platform, Acre, has announced the launch of Acre Surveying, offering property surveys and valuations to brokers and their clients.
The new service will soon be available to all Acre users through a new partnership with FP Surveying.
Acre Surveying, which provides independent RICS Level II homebuyers reports from £499 including VAT, gives mortgage advisers instant access to a network of chartered surveyors.
Acre Surveying is fully integrated into Acre’s platform, making it easier for users to refer clients to the new surveying service. Alternatively, homebuyers can self-refer through Acre’s client portal. With one click, clients can arrange an appointment with a chartered surveyor and brokers will earn commission for each survey completed.
Acre Surveying has recently gone live with Finance Planning Mortgage Network.
Reuben Thompson, Acre’s vice president of product innovation, said: “We’re delighted to extend our successful partnership with the Finance Planning Mortgage Network with the launch of Acre Surveying. This exciting development gives advisers the ability to refer clients with one click to best-in-class chartered surveyors and reflects another step in Acre’s mission to be the only piece of software any adviser needs. We are bringing all elements of the mortgage journey on board and improving the experience.”
Mark Ninnim, director at FP Surveying, commented: “It makes sense that every homebuyer would want at least a quote for a survey, yet traditionally that hasn’t always happened. Acre has solved this with a simple one-click solution that removes the barriers and makes it effortless for brokers to do the right thing for their clients. By combining that innovation with our trusted surveying expertise, we’re making surveys more accessible and ensuring more buyers get the reassurance they need when purchasing a home.”
