Updated Mortgage Form

We've made some improvements to our Mortgage form based on your feedback.

We have further improved the Mortgage form by separating information that may be populated to sourcing in the Mortgage Information section. A new section below, Mortgage Case Information will include details of the recommendation including data pulled back from sourcing (or manually added).


Protection - More Life Insurance Needs

We've added other types of Protection cover to the Life Insurance Needs including: Repay mortgage on death, Provide for Dependants on death, Repay mortgage in the event of serious illness, and Provide an amount in the event of serious illness.


Experian

We now display the following error when Experian is unable to verify the user or provide a credit report for them, 'Experian have been unable to provide a credit report for your client. Please advise your client to contact Experian directly. You will not be charged for this credit check.'


Email - Send emails from System Admin or Broker

As a system administrator, manager or admin assistant, you now have the option to send an email from yourself or the individual broker on the case so that you can choose who the email comes from. This feature can be accessed from the Cases screen.


New Improvements

We've added the Equity share scheme and related repayment date fields to the Mortgage form.

We've also added the Discounted Purchase Price.

We've added new options to the Additional Product Type list including 'Genuine Bargain Price' and 'Restricted Resale'.

We also now display a Field Error message in SmartrConnect where a user has not selected a valid Title option for that lender integration.


Sesame specific improvements

GBG: When an identity check has not been performed or is over 90 days old, we now display a message on the Verify Identity page.
