Linear, which was launched this week, will provide full sales support courtesy of the Zurich Mortgage Network and utilising Zurich's innovative new software, Eti.
Linear will provide specialist mortgage services to UK estate agents which can be tailored to individual requirements, including management, compliance and mortgage consultants. Mark Graves, managing director at Linear, has also announced its first contractual link up with Chancellors, a leading UK estate agent.
Linear will benefit from Zurich's integrated software package, Eti, which enables advisors provide their clients with a complete portfolio of mortgage-related products, including buildings and contents insurance, highly competitive mortgage deals and protection quotations at point of sale.
Graves states: "From our extensive experience of working in the estate agency business, we believe we understand the financial service solutions better than most in the market. Providing independent mortgage advice and expertise is the key and we are able to provide this quality, whilst at the same time being highly cost efficient for our business partners. Being able to utilise the infrastructure of a large company such as Zurich, whose excellent software and strategy within the mortgage arena totally fits our model and that of our Business Partners."
