This builds on the announcement last month when Countrywide signed an exclusive UK-wide agreement with CB Richard Ellis to use both CBRE’s commercial property expertise and Countrywide’s position as a leader in the UK residential property market providing all–round project marketing services including advice on all aspects of sales, rental, investment, financial and property management for new houses and apartments, using its high street infrastructure to maximise CBRE’s unit sales capabilities.
Grenville Turner, chief executive at Countrywide, said; “The launch of our specialist new homes financial services is a continuation of our strategic focus to enhance our position in the land and new homes sector.
“Our aim is to provide an all-round compelling and powerful proposition estate agency, financial services and conveyancing for house builders and developers.”
Nigel Stockton, financial services director at Countrywide, said: “This new proposition is a logical extension of the new build mortgage advisory services that we currently provide with Hurst Independent.
“As the UK’s largest mortgage broker, we have access to the very best mortgage and financial products. By expanding and implementing the infrastructure of our network to build a bespoke service in the new homes sector; we can provide this same level of service across the country.”
