Tech upgrade delivers faster, easier home loan settlements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Australian-owned non-bank lender Brighten<\/a> has joined forces with MSA National<\/a>, a provider of mortgage documentation and settlement services, to streamline the loan settlement experience for brokers and borrowers, leveraging digital tools to improve turnaround times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The collaboration means a portion of Brighten\u2019s loan book will now use MSA National\u2019s services, aimed at making settlements quicker, simpler, and more transparent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The announcement follows Brighten\u2019s broker channel expansion. The firm recently onboarded 4,500 brokers through its Connective<\/a> Horizons white-label product range. Connective Horizon, launched in partnership with aggregator Connective Home Loans, targets underserved segments such as expat and non-resident borrowers, commercial securities, construction, and vacant land<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brighten CEO Jason Azzopardi<\/a> (pictured) said the lender\u2019s strategy is centred on tech innovation to elevate the broker and borrower experience as the business continues to scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re focused on making the lending experience faster and more frictionless for brokers and borrowers,\u201d Azzopardi said. \u201cWe know how important it is to be easy to deal with and to help borrowers move quickly to secure their dream home. Removing pain points from the settlement process is a key part of that, and our partnership with MSA has delivered.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
