Harpenden Building Society has joined LMS Panel Link, which connects mortgage lenders with law firms.  

The conveyancing services firm’s panel provides a list of vetted legal businesses that meet its quality, security and compliance criteria.  

The mutual will also use will the firm’s SecureLink system to reduce post-offer conveyancing queries and allow automated messaging with the law firms on the panel.  

LMS chief relationship officer Suzanne O’Connor says the “partnership not only shows our commitment to revolutionising the mortgage landscape but also reaffirms our shared vision of making the homebuying and remortgage process as simple as possible for our stakeholders.”  

Harpenden Building Society director of operations Gemma Fient adds: “This strategic move reflects our dedication to customer centricity — by leveraging the power of Panel Link, we can make use of an enhanced, digitised experience while maintaining the highest standards of quality and compliance.”
