LendInvest Mortgages has been recognised as the top-rated digital-first lender according to Smart Money People’s H1 2025 Mortgage Lender Benchmark survey report.
Elsewhere in the report, the lender placed second in Specialist Lenders and earned a 5-star rating from brokers after placing 7th in the league table for all lenders.
Now in its 14th year, the Smart Money People Mortgage Lender Benchmark Report provides an in-depth analysis of the intermediary mortgage market from the broker’s perspective, using feedback from over 1,100 brokers and covering 134 lenders, representing 98% of the UK Mortgage Market.
Brokers commended LendInvest when it comes to its Mortgages Portal, the bespoke tech platform where the entire mortgage process is conducted. Additionally, brokers noted the lender’s fast decision-making and found its BDMs and service teams to be helpful, responsive and approachable.
With brokers placing cases due to LendInvest’s ease of application and speed of processing, one broker described the company as “the right balance between technology and a ‘human touch.’”
