The change means that landlords and brokers can now access a more comprehensive range of solicitors and law firms when using Zephyr’s products.

Paul Fryers (pictured), managing director at Zephyr Homeloans, said: “We know that brokers and landlords value having greater choices throughout the loan process, whether over the type and length of the loan or being able to select a preferred solicitor.

“These changes mean that our clients can more easily identify a preferred solicitor from an enhanced range – and we expect the panel to grow further based on the preferences of our broker partners and their clients.”

Zephyr said that its panel can accept individual and limited company applications and that, by increasing the panel size, it can help clients more easily choose between dual or separate representation.

Solicitors not yet on the approved list of Zephyr’s conveyancer panel may submit their information through Lender Exchange for consideration and must meet Zephyr’s criteria before joining.
