Lender gains access to a panel of over 900 surveyors
Pure Panel Management and Paragon Bank have entered into an agreement, which will see the panel management services provider undertake property valuations in connection with the specialist lender’s buy-to-let proposition.
The partnership will offer Paragon access to Pure’s panel, which currently has over 900 surveyors.
Pure Panel Management said it prides itself on having extensive knowledge and experience of the services provided by the various business sectors within the UK valuation marketplace.
“The key to our success over the years has been through the strength of the relationships forged with both our lender and broker clients,” James Gillam (pictured), managing director at Pure Panel Management, commented. “We look forward to swiftly building a close association with the Paragon team and in adding further value to their ongoing proposition.”
Paragon, which has reported strong annual growth in buy-to-let lending, recently expanded its BTL product range by adding four limited edition fixed rate products.
“Paragon Bank is a major player in the specialist lending circles, and this represents a significant panel addition for the business and puts us in prime position to support the Paragon team in servicing the business it writes across the buy-to-let market,” he said.
“Pure Panel Management is a well-run and highly respected business within the valuation space,” David Hitches, head of property risk at Paragon Bank, added. “This represents an important addition to our panel in terms of providing the lender and their landlord clients with independence, flexibility, customised service, years of experience, and a track record for innovation and delivery.”
