Solent launches incentive package

The package of three incentives includes free valuations on all available products in the range for both purchase and remortgage, free legals, including disbursements on all remortgages through Goldsmith Williams solicitors, and a £300 cashback after the case’s completion on all purchases.

Ian Balfour, sales and marketing director of Solent, said: “It is good to be in a position to offer these excellent features. Victoria Mortgages is a forward-thinking lender that understands what the market is looking for. The incentives are among the best in the industry and our brokers are already reacting favourably.”

David Newman, marketing director at Victoria Mortgages, said: “ Solent has proved to be an excellent business partner and the products reflect the level of understanding which we have built up in our respective businesses.”

Nicholas Hanson, director of Hanson Financial Management, said: “It all boils down to service, for me, that is king. Mortgages are renowned for being difficult to get through, so I would rather the process take two weeks than four. However, if a lender was charging an evaluation or booking fee, but I felt confident in their standard of service, I would recommend to my client to go with them instead. The problem is that lenders and packagers are not consistent; there are some who have a chaotic underwriting process. But if the service is there, then I would be tempted.”
