    Hi,

    One of the sites I run is a mortgage site and I get 1-2 leads per day who are looking for a first time mortgage / first time home buyer mortgage.

    Can anyone suggest where to send these leads ? as I know the majority of the companies on most networks want leads of people looking bad credit loans / secured loans.

    Any ideas as it seems a massive waste at the moment because I am literally getting 50 leads a month rejected (worth £1000's) because they are first time buyers who possibly have bad credit also.

    Thanks

    Leadbay will take them, but the payouts for this type of lead are pretty miserly (mainly because FTB leads very rarely convert) and they have a patchy validation record (cue post to the contrary from Simon Baker of Leadbay ).

    I also think you're more likely to be looking at hundreds rather than thousands.

    Smingle - i relied in another post of yours but basically ..

    The reason first time buyers are worth less is two fold -

    Firstly the likelyhood of converting such a lead is much lower than converting for example a remortgage. Secondly the length of time it takes for such a deal to payout to the broker is often several months (could be 6 or more).

    We do have a programme that will accept this type of mortgage enquiry ...


    I'm bored of talking about validation now so will spare you that
