The deal will involve Mortgage Next, the UK’s largest independent mortgage distributor, giving Scottish Provident Mortgage Alliance’s members access to a panel of six specialist lenders – BM Solutions, Britannic Money, Capital Home Loans, Platform, TMB and UCB Home Loans. These lenders have a well earned reputation for offering competitively priced products. Exclusive products developed in conjunction with Mortgage Next will also be available.
As part of the overall service package Mortgage Next will also be providing a dedicated free helpline to provide advice and recommendations to intermediaries on the most suitable self cert product for an applicant’s individual personal circumstances.
Commenting on the agreement, Martin Maynard, Mortgage Next’s Managing Director said “Scottish Provident Mortgage Alliance has grown very quickly over the last 18 months and we are delighted to have been selected by them to provide a dedicated service which will give them a growing presence in the self cert market. These types of agreements where a third party provides a high quality, professional outsourced service are likely to become more and more common as the mortgage market prepares itself for the introduction of the new regulatory regime which will take place in just over a years time.”
Mark Evans of the Scottish Provident Mortgage Alliance added “We are really pleased to have Mortgage Next on board. They have an excellent reputation in the marketplace and we are delighted that our members will have access to their specialist panel of self-cert lenders and the exclusive products they regularly negotiate.”
