For mortgage advisers

Draft the MCOB suitability report in minutes, not evenings

NeedsIQ Mortgage drafts the suitability report from your fact-find, with the reasoning MCOB expects and a one-click protection cross-sell. You review and sign off.

The report, drafted around the reasoning

The suitability report is where you evidence that the recommendation is right for the client. NeedsIQ Mortgage drafts it with affordability, term rationale, rate-type reasoning and any debt-consolidation trade-offs already in place, so you review and tailor rather than start from a blank page.

Every mortgage client is a protection conversation

Where a protection need shows up, NeedsIQ cross-sells in one click: the same fact-find flows straight into a Demands & Needs draft. Two compliant files from one client conversation, both for your review and sign-off.

What you get

  • An MCOB suitability report drafted from the fact-find, with the reasoning for lender, product, rate type and term.
  • A structured debt-consolidation rationale and a term-into-retirement prompt.
  • An optional client pre-appointment questionnaire by secure link, so the client notes the basics and you review, verify and merge them.
  • One-click protection cross-sell into a Demands & Needs draft, including joint-life cover for a couple.
  • A document vault on the case for quote comparisons, ID and AML, illustrations and the offer.
  • Secure delivery of the signed-off report to the client, with a read-and-acknowledged trail on file.
  • A file pre-check and a clean, editable submission pack.

NeedsIQ produces draft documents for a qualified adviser to review, amend and sign off. It does not source products, recommend a lender or insurer, or give regulated advice. The FCA-authorised adviser chooses the recommendation and remains responsible for the file.

Frequently asked questions

Does NeedsIQ source mortgages?

No. NeedsIQ does not source products or recommend a lender. It drafts the suitability report from the fact-find and your chosen recommendation, for you to review and sign off.

How does the protection cross-sell work?

When a protection need is identified on a mortgage case, one click starts a Demands & Needs draft that reuses the mortgage fact-find, so you do not re-key the client's details. Where you are advising a couple, you can run them as a single joint-life case.

Can the client complete a questionnaire before their appointment, and receive the report by link?

Yes, if you turn the optional pre-appointment questionnaire on. It gathers the factual basics only, so the client never sees or picks a recommendation. You review, verify and merge their answers, and can deliver the signed-off report back to them by secure link with a read-and-acknowledged trail on file. You give the advice and sign off everything.

Can I try it before subscribing?

Yes. See a sample drafted from a fictional case with no card, then run one free on your own fact-find.
