Legal and General Surveying Services partners with Together

07 April 2026

Mortgage valuer Legal and General Surveying Services (“LGSS”) has signed an agreement with specialist property lender Together, to become a key valuation partner for network and club cases.

The agreement aims to drive faster and more consistent valuations for brokers and clients using Together’s specialist mortgage products including residential, Buy-to-Let and HMO* lending.

Under the new arrangement, LGSS will handle qualifying residential valuation instructions for Together’s intermediary Network and Club channel, leveraging its national panel of RICS-qualified surveyors and digital valuation platform to accelerate turnaround times and improve efficiency.

Nick Parker, the sales director for networks and clubs at Together, said:

“We’re delighted to appoint Legal and General Surveying Services as a strategic valuation partner for our network and club cases. As a specialist lender, speed, consistency and certainty are critical for our broker partners and their clients, particularly when dealing with more complex properties or circumstances.

“LGSS brings a wealth of experience valuing specialist assets, supported by a highly skilled in house surveying team and robust data, audit and technology capabilities, including its Property Decision Engine. That expertise, scale and modern approach closely aligns with Together’s common sense lending philosophy and our focus on removing friction from the end to end process.

“This partnership will help us deliver a smoother, more efficient experience for brokers, enabling them to progress cases with confidence and ultimately achieve better outcomes for their customers.”

Paula Matthews, strategic account director at Legal and General Surveying Services, said:

“Together has a reputation for supporting customers who require more flexible lending solutions, and we are proud to play a key role in helping them complete those transactions smoothly and efficiently. Our teams have worked hard to ensure a seamless transition, and we look forward to delivering high-quality, reliable valuations that support Together’s growth ambitions.”

The partnership comes as specialist lending grows in importance in the UK mortgage market with rising demand for flexible finance outside mainstream criteria. The tie-up will help improve coverage and enhance the broker experience when submitting cases to Together.

Both parties confirmed that existing cases already in progress will be unaffected, and full details of the new process have been communicated to Together’s Network and Club distribution partners and their members.

LGSS has been operating for more than 20 years and provides valuation, surveying and digital reporting for lenders. It handled 375,000 mortgage valuations in 2025.
