Introducing Broker Enquiry

At Equifax, we work with Mortgage Brokers and Advisers to help their customers gain access to credit so they can live the life they want.

Our Broker Enquiry product is a continuation of our long-standing support for financial intermediaries.

 

So, what does Broker Enquiry do?

This simple, easy to use tool is designed to help Brokers or Advisers prequalify loan applications by giving them an up-to-date view of their customers' credit histories.

Broker Enquiry provides comprehensive credit reporting and doesn't impact a customers credit file.

 

Why Broker Enquiry?

Here's why a Broker should choose this product:

  • Confidence: Have the most up to date and accurate picture of your customers' financial position (including comprehensive credit reporting).
  • Insight: See the same information a loan provider will see in their decision making process, including repayment information and account details.
  • Time and Money: Gain efficiencies by aligning your customer to a loan provider who is more likely to approve an application.
