Its very clear that lenders must realise very soon that mortgage brokers as a distribution channel are a veryy effective way of increasing market share. Having more branches is not profitable. I am still amazed at the number of lenders dual pricing.
Offer the same rates to brokers as well - that way you cover all angles of distribution - at a lower cost.
Brokers are frustrated as they feel they have introduced alot of new clients to lenders - without support.
All you have to do is look at Barclays Woolwich and Santander (Abbey) to see why these lenders are still supporting brokers - and getting results.
