Who we are

Hound has assembled a team of seasoned professionals who have worked in the mortgage broking industry for a number of years. This experience and understanding allows Hound to provide a platform for mortgage brokers, with the broker in mind, and is "something we pride ourselves on."

What we do

We understand how important writing new business is to sustaining a broking business, but there does come a time in a broker’s life when run off on the back book increases. Loans being paid down or leaving you without your knowledge, often to a point where the new business coming in the front door is only covering what is running out the back door. Your biggest asset is standing still.

Hound is your loyal companion, working like a dog to manage all elements of your back book to make sure you keep your clients longer, your book grows, your profit increases and most importantly, you get the best sale price for your book when you sell.

Why we do it

Hear from Founder and MD, Peter Smyth, as he discusses how the Hound platform is different from any other competitor.

Frequently asked questions

What is Hound?

Hound is an all-inclusive back book management platform helping brokers keep their customers longer, grow their trail books and increase profitability.

Who owns Hound?

After identifying that there are very few tools available to help brokers understand and manage their back books, the Founder Peter Smyth created Hound. Hound is independently owned with Peter being Hound’s largest shareholder along with several private investors and all Hound’s current team members.

How does Hound work?

Using the data from within your CRM, your commission statements and various 3rd party data providers, Hound’s algorithms alert brokers to the clients that are at highest risk of leaving their book giving brokers an opportunity to contact these clients before they leave. Hound also provides you detailed analysis of your book so you can keep track of all the important trail book KPIs to ensure you get the highest value for your book when you go to sell.
