How has Accord changed?

We know you care about what you do for your clients. That's why we listen to what you want from us and have acted to make improvements based on your feedback.


Quicker DIPs & More Accepts

Not only are more borrowers being accepted for a mortgage with Accord, but brokers are receiving quicker offers on client applications following a series of changes we've made to the application and underwriter process.

 


Improved Affordability

We've made changes to our affordability criteria and lending policies so we can help even more borrowers; offering mortgages to a wider range of customers, more quickly. We're also more able to responsibly lend larger loans to some borrowers.


 


Underwriters you can call on

You can contact the Underwriter processing your client's case directly. With a direct line to the decision maker, your questions can be answered on the spot. Available Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm and Saturday, 9am to 12 noon, calls are answered promptly enabling you to give your client a first class service.
