How it works

Process.

  1. Download and complete the paper application form and email to [email protected]
  2. We will then issue you the ESIS for your client. Once you, and they, have checked and approved this please inform our team who will then proceed to DIP, or straight to full application, on your behalf.
  3. Due to the application being paper based, we will request all documents via email, which will include details on how to pay fees.
  4. The underwriter will update you directly. The offer document will be posted to your clients, solicitor and to you. (Please ensure the client signs their own version, not the solicitors or yours!)
