"This award is welcome recognition of an outstanding team effort at Platform. Everyone involved, from directors of the business through to our dedicated teams of account managers and underwriters, have played an important part in achieving this well deserved success. This accolade recognises our aim to be the intermediary’s favourite lender and is another example of how brokers value the service we offer – one element which is critical to our ongoing success in such a competitive market.
"2007 has already been a very exciting time for Platform, having completed our first sameday offer using AVM technology plus being recognised in recent industry awards for our high standards of service. These achievements, combined with the benefits of our Click online system, 110% Buy to Let rental, removal of Higher Lending Charges and free legal fees for remortgages, lend considerable weight to our overall market proposition.
"We have also recently announced significant changes to our product range, which include reductions in fixed and tracker rates. We are also very pleased to be celebrating our tenth year of continuous lending in the non-conforming sector in 2007 and expect to be making many more announcements in the remainder of the year advising of further enhancements to our overall proposition.
"The non-conforming sector remains a hugely competitive arena and we are therefore delighted to be recognised for our ongoing efforts to retain our position at the forefront of this fast paced and exciting industry."
