Are you in a one way relationship with your Conveyancing Solicitors?

October 27, 2015

It takes two to manage a successful relationship. Do you feel you’re giving more than your fair share with the local solicitors you refer work to? Something as simple as waiting on a quote for a customer, even having to chase for it, can push you over the edge.

At Hoowla we have expanded our online conveyancing platform to help you manage the relationships you have with your solicitors. We start by giving you the ability to generate instant conveyancing quotes for your customers from your own personal panel of firms and refer them on without any waiting or chasing.

Knowing where you stand in your relationship means knowing how much business you send to each firm and who’s converting your referrals to customers. Hoowla provides a top level view of the spread of referrals to your panel across your agency so you can make informed business decisions and feel in control of your relationships. You can even tell who’s passing you back probate work.

Estate agents are great at adopting new technology but solicitors traditionally haven’t been. It’s not all their fault though. The tools available aren’t great, built by people in the legal industry and generally old fashioned, offline and very expensive. But this is changing. Hoowla is saving and improving relationships by modernising conveyancing for the property industry through technology. Their conveyancing case management software bridges that frustrating gap in communication. It keeps everyone in the picture as properties progress, providing tools for two way collaboration, helping manage customer expectations, increasing transparency and providing an unrivalled experience for everyone.

Have you started cheating on your local firms by flirting with a long distance relationship? Remember that nothing beats two local companies working together in harmony and never forget that relationships are complicated.

Hoowla, a provider of online legal software, also provides panel management software which allows estate agents and mortgage brokers to manage their own private panel of solicitors. Hoowla keeps everyone in the loop throughout the conveyancing process through a modern, professional interface. Hoowla offers 24 hour support and works closely with customers, quickly integrating feature requests into the system at no extra cost.

By Adam Hills, Client Services Director, LRG Living Markets The residential lettings industry still manages many large portfolios as though they’re simply collections of individual tenancies. While that works on small portfolios, but it doesn’t work when landlords own 50, 100 or 200 properties. At that point, the challenge is no longer property management alone…
