ModaMortgages, the newly launched specialist buy-to-let (BTL) mortgage lender from Chetwood Bank, is to partner with LMS, the UK’s leading conveyancer and panel management specialist, becoming the 41st lender to take advantage of LMS Panel Link®. 

The lender aims to make BTL mortgages smarter, faster and simpler, focusing on delivering a fast, transparent and stress-free service to brokers.  

Through its unique Panel Link® service, LMS will provide ModaMortgages with a fully vetted, secure panel that meets its exact requirements.  

LMS will also provide a range of component products to further reduce risk and deliver operational efficiencies in the house buying and remortgaging process. This includes bank account checks and due diligence, a speed-enhancing case instruction portal, and electronic mortgage offers and valuation uploads, which reduces risk and time in sharing critical documents with conveyancers, while also ensuring a secure and documented data trail.  

LMS Panel Link® will help to streamline the conveyancing process for ModaMortgages, providing a database of suitable firms that can work with each customer looking to take out a BTL mortgage. 

Commenting on the news, Suzanne O’Connor, Chief Relationship Officer at LMS said:
