Update Announcement on the integration of MorWEB and CommunityLend

 
 

June 24, 2010 –Last month, Marlborough Stirling Canada announced an exciting new partnership which allows our broker community to provide their customers with direct access to unsecured loans right through the MorWEB platform. 

Our partner on this initiative, CommunityLend, has integrated their unique online lending platform for unsecured loans directly into the MorWEB product. They are also working with our brokers to customize their own customer-facing launch page online.

We are excited to announce that a number of our brokers have already taken advantage of this new service and that one of our broker members has already secured a $17,000 loan on the system for one of their customers.

Here is what Lorna McGibbon of Manhattan Mortgages had to say about this new service:

“We were very happy to be able to help our customer to get an unsecured loan through CommunityLend. My client needed a Home Improvement loan at a reasonable rate and I was pleased to be able help them without directing them back to their bank. CommunityLend was able to get a fixed rate of 7.25% for a $17,000 for my client. I will be recommending this lending service for more of my customers going forward.”

Just a reminder that CommunityLend facilitates unsecured loans from $1,000 – 25,000 and the service is free to use for brokers. There are no charges to your customers for applying on the system and they pay a small charge of 1-2% of the loan amount only when a loan is closed. CommunityLend is even paying our brokers a referral fee of $50.00 for each loan which is transacted from their customer base. 

To find out more about using this new service through MorWEB just click on the link provided in your MorWEB homepage or see the information below. You can also contact CommunityLend at colin@communitylend.com or 416-646-2177.
