Yorkshire Building Society adopts Cotality’s Lender Hub to enhance property decisioning with AVM and EPC Data

New partnership will deliver faster and more accurate lending decisions and deeper property insights, as part of Yorkshire Building Society’s transformation journey.

London, UK – 10 December 2025 - Cotality is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Yorkshire Building Society to deliver its Automated Valuation Model (AVM) services alongside EPC and energy efficiency data for residential properties integrating with its Lender Hub platform.

The partnership is part of Yorkshire Building Society’s digital transformation and sustainability strategy - enhancing its mortgage processes with real-time property valuations and deeper insight into energy performance. This change will enable quicker, smarter lending decisions while helping the society meet the evolving needs of its members and regulatory expectations around energy performance.

“We are committed to making good homes possible for more people,” said Simon Martin, Director of Credit Risk at Yorkshire Building Society. “By integrating Cotality’s Lender Hub for AVM and EPC data, we’re not only improving operational efficiency - we’re giving our teams the insight to make better decisions around affordability, property condition and long-term sustainability.”

The AVM service leverages advanced modelling techniques and market data to deliver fast, reliable property valuations, reducing time to offer and minimising the need for physical inspections.

The inclusion of EPC ratings and granular energy performance indicators supports lenders’ assessment of property-level climate risk, preparing for potential regulatory shifts, and helping members understand and improve home efficiency.

“Yorkshire Building Society understands that the future of lending is both digital and datadriven,” said Mark Blackwell, Chief Operating Officer at Cotality. “We’re proud to support their journey with technology that brings accuracy, speed, and sustainability insight together—enabling more informed, more efficient and more effective lending.”
