SortRefer… from Kev’s point of view

Kevin Tunnicliffe, CEO of SortRefer founded the business back in 2007 with a group of three other industry peers.

“I wanted to introduce a new facility which was designed by brokers, for brokers. My overriding desire was to build a conveyancing hub that actually delivered the kind of service for all brokers that I had been unable to find consistently enough to offer my own clients. Conveyancing is one of the key areas of the property purchase and mortgage process and I was determined there had to be a better way for brokers to gain access to a consistently high standard of service. From the reception we’ve received over the years, we’ve definitely delivered what we set out and look to the future for innovative ways of improving our industry.

Over the years, we’ve implemented new processes, added new products and we’re pleased to provide a portal with other products (not just Conveyancing).“
