National Counties joins MCI Panel

MCI is currently in talks with other lenders and more new additions to the panel are expected shortly.

National Counties Building Society has become the latest lender to join MCI Mortgage Club’s panel alongside the likes of Nationwide, Woolwich and Lloyds Banking Group.

MCI Mortgage Club, which was launched in late 2014 with broker champion Phil Whitehouse at its helm, is fast growing its reputation as a leading mortgage club for UK intermediaries to access lenders and insurers at very competitive terms.

Managing director Phil Whitehouse, who spearheaded the club’s launch in 2014, said: “I warmly welcome NCBS to MCI Club’s growing panel of lenders. National Counties coupled with the Family Building Society brand have a range of very competitive products aimed at some interesting niche areas.

“I particularly feel that their criteria for older applicants and interest only loans will be well received by intermediaries and their policy on contractors will be popular.

“On the other end of the spectrum is an interesting range of products to assist first time buyers with the help of their family and also a low start mortgage option.’'

Cammy Amaira, head of intermediary sales at National Counties and Family Building Societies, said: “Working with key partners such as MCI Mortgage Club is essential if we are to ensure our products and services are distributed to those borrowers who need the right mortgage for their particular circumstances, be they a first time buyer or a last time buyer.

“As our mortgages are tailored for borrowers who often aren’t properly catered for by the main stream lenders, distributing through the professional intermediary sector is vital for the continued growth of National Counties and Family Building Society.

“Joining MCI Mortgage Club is very good news and once again, shows our commitment to the intermediary channel.”

Whitehouse added that MCI is currently in talks with other lenders and more new additions to the panel are expected shortly.
