There are more than 100 different mortgage lenders in the UK; using the JET system ensures you meet their requirements, which can change on a daily basis. It takes a lot of time to check you've covered yourself in every instance – you've also got to prove you complied with the lender's requirements at the time – potentially tricky many years down the line if there's a dispute.
If you fail to address a lender's requirements during the transaction you could be sued by the lender for the full value of the mortgage or your firm could be removed from the lender panel. The system is quick and easy to use; spend just 10 minutes of each transaction completing JET's simple workflow to be confident that you've complied with the lender's latest terms and conditions.
