CRM for Modern Mortgage Brokers

Do not waste any time chasing down client information. Our System will send your clients information requests, allowing them to fill out and upload their data and documents to a secure link, leaving the fact-finding to the client, not you. SwiftCase’s Mortgage System cuts out unnecessary meetings and speeds up traditionally long and inefficient ways of collecting data.

Our System will remember your Clients’ details. If you create a new enquiry for an existing client, SwiftCase will pre-populate all the information fields with the client’s details, saving you and your employees time, and increasing efficiency.

Have a look through the Mortgage Enquiry Workflow below to discover how our innovative automation technology could work for you.

  1. Click theCreate New Taskbutton on the top left-hand side of the dashboard.

  1. This will take you to a New Task page. Select anApplicant Groupfrom the dropdown box or click the ‘Create New Applicant’ button underneath. The Applicant Group could be the family name of a married couple, the Company name of a business applying for a mortgage, or any group of individuals. Select ‘Applicants’ from the dropdown box or click theCreate New Applicantsbutton underneath. Applicants are the individuals applying for the mortgage. At this point you will only need to collect the contact details (email/contact number)of the main applicant, as they will fill in the bulk of the fact-find themselves, and add any additional applicant information on the task. Once these fields are filled out, click theCreate Taskbutton.

  1. This will take you to a New Task page for that applicant. Select from theEnquiry Typedropdown box, the route in which the Applicants found your company. If this was anEstate Agent Enquiry, add the Estate Agents they came from in theAssign Estate Agentdropdown box. Click Next to choose a broker to handle the enquiry, and also input an appointment time agreed with the applicant. Once these fields are filled out, click the Save button. This will finalise the creation of the enquiry task and update the status of the task toConfigure Document Requirements.

  1. Click theAdd Required Documentsbutton to outline all the documents you need from your Applicant(s). You can add multiple Required Documents, by re-clicking theAdd Required Documentsbutton. Choose the document type from theSelect Typedropdown so that the applicant will be informed later in the workflow.

  1. Once all the required documents have been added, click theDocuments Configuredbutton. This will move the Task status along to **Appointment Awaiting- Pending Client Data’**and will automatically send out an email to the Applicant(s) providing them with a link, where they can fill out any additional information and upload the required documents. This drastically reduces time wasted going through documents and information face-to-face, benefiting both your business and your customers. Once the Applicant(s) have submitted any information and documents, the link will be inaccessible to anyone, increasing security and peace of mind
