"We’re excited to enhance the range of lenders available to our broker network through the welcome addition of esbs."
- Sasha Sprake, head of business development at finova
finova Payment and Mortgage Services has announced a new partnership with Earl Shilton Building Society (esbs), expanding the portfolio of lending products available to its directly authorised broker club.
finova’s brokers will now have access to the Society's mortgage range across England and Wales, allowing lending for self-builds, first-time buyers, later life and agricultural tied properties.
esbs’ current product range includes five-year discount rates up to 95% LTV. The building society will also consider applications with up to four applicants, where income from each of the applicants can be considered as part of their affordability assessment.
esbs joins finova's panel of over 85 lenders, offering products from standard mortgages to specialist and niche lending solutions, including residential, buy-to-let, second charge, commercial and development, and equity release.
Sasha Sprake, head of business development at finova Connect, commented: “We’re excited to enhance the range of lenders available to our broker network through the welcome addition of esbs.
“With mortgage rates starting to stabilise, we’re beginning to see some borrowers resume their purchase plans and we’re confident that our intermediary members will be able to further support these customers through access to esbs’ varied offering.”
Richard Carson, business development and marketing manager at esbs, said: “At esbs, our common-sense philosophy is simple: we assess every case on its own merits, and we always put the customer first. To that end, we are proud to partner with finova, who share our commitment to supporting both borrowers and intermediaries in today’s evolving market.”
