New strategic partnership aims to boost agency compliance

Client onboarding and verification tool LandmarkAgent has announce a strategic partnership with CRM provider Street.co.uk.

The collaboration will enable agency users to access the benefits of both companies, harnessing Landmark's anti-money laundering (AML) checks alongside Street.co.uk's CRM, agent app and client-facing apps.

This will help agents perform client checks more efficiently.

The integration offers thorough AML checks, live status updates, accelerated transaction times, and improved efficiency, as well as support to avoid any potential lapses in compliance.

The announcement follows the recent launch of LandmarkConnect, a series of digital hubs aimed at streamlining the home buying and selling process, increasing digitisation, and fostering industry collaboration to eliminate weeks of delay and uncertainty. 

Ben Robinson, director of introducers at LandmarkAgent, said: “This is a significant step forward in elevating industry standards and providing agents with the tools they need to thrive in today's fast-paced market. 

“By integrating our powerful AML checks into Street.co.uk's innovative CRM platform, as part of our new LandmarkConnect proposition, we aim to transform AML compliance in the industry. With complete peace of mind, quicker transaction times, and no more missed checks, agents can now focus on providing exceptional service to their clients.” 

Heather Staff, co-founder of Street.co.uk, said: “With the ever-changing guidelines, remaining compliant can be a big worry for estate agents… not to mention a huge amount of associated admin. 

“That’s why it’s so important that they have a reliable compliance partner. 

Since day one, our mission here at Street.co.uk has been to make buying and selling property easier for everyone involved. That’s why we’re delighted to have teamed up with Landmark on a brand-new integration that embeds compliance checks directly into Street.co.uk - designed to reduce the burden on agents, manage risk and speed up transaction times.”
