  Re: LeadPoint recruits 26,000 Lead buyers – Unlimited Demand for Remortgage Leads

It's all very well having a high average lead price for remortgages but as I keep on saying remortgage is less than 40% of the mortgage market place and any lead exchange needs to be able to effectively categorise and monetise the whole of the market place including FTB, Self cert, adverse, BTL etc..

Sporadic good pricing for certain lead types is not helpful, neither is the concept of unsold leads or limiting affiliates volume of certain lead types. Leadbay has almost sold a million mortgage leads over the past few years and our ability to take unlimited volume of any mortgage type as well as being totally transparent with bid prices has lead to our continued success including being nominated for the A4U awards finance vertical (something no other lead exchange managed) and being 'Highly Commended' by the judges.

Out of interest our average lead price for remortgages yesterday was over £25 and it seems the market for prime remortgages is beginning to pick up again as lenders begin to reduce the gap of 'dual pricing' which has been hitting brokers hard.
