Council of Mortgage Lenders

Almost all banks and lenders that offer mortgages in the United Kingdom are members of the Council of Mortgage Lenders (CLM).

This body acts to promote the interests of the mortgage lending industry but also carries out other work such as compiling the CLM Handbook. This is a checklist for solicitors laying out what documents need to be obtained and inspected before a mortgage provider will lend on a given property.
