Where it started

The starting point

The home loan consultations contact route was a single page for every kind of visitor. New business and ongoing conversations arrived indistinguishable.

The problem

With home loan consultations, staff opened each message blind. Sorting new business from ongoing threads required reading everything, every morning, by hand.

What we built

A simple opening choice between a new inquiry, an existing request and a general question now leads visitors to the appropriate route. The new-inquiry path asks for purchase or refinance goal, property state and callback time.

  • Contact categories
  • Separate follow-up route
  • Relevant form fields
  • Clear button labels

Timeline

15 working days after content approval, including staff review and handover.

  1. Day 0

    Content approved

    The client signs off the wording and material. The working days start here.

  2. In between

    Build and staff review

    We build; the client's own staff review the pages and the inquiry path before anything goes live.

  3. Day 15

    Handover

    The work is live and handed over, within 15 working days of content approval.

What changed

When it comes to home loan consultations, the inbox now describes itself. Categories come attached to each message, and follow-ups no longer masquerade as new inquiries.

In the client's words

“New home loan consultations customers and existing ones use different doors, and we can see which is which before opening anything.”

Questions about this project

How long did this project take?

15 working days after content approval, including staff review and handover. The working days are counted from the day the client approved the content, so the time the client spent gathering and signing off their material is not part of it. The launch window for a new site on each of our plans is set out on the pricing page.

What did we build for this green mortgage advice brokerage?

Why is the business not named?

On purpose. The client is described as a green mortgage advice brokerage in Baton Rouge, Louisiana with 16 staff, which is enough to judge whether the situation is close to yours. The quote is published with permission and attributed to Rashid Youssef, director, but we do not publish the business name, its logo or its web address.

Did this project involve rates, approvals or lending advice?

No. The work was about how the website handles inquiries and content. We are not a lender, mortgage broker, loan originator or financial adviser, and nothing on a site we build quotes a rate, states eligibility or implies an approval. The wording on every page, including the route to a conversation with a licensed loan officer, is reviewed and approved by the client.
