Working together to secure your clients the best property finance

Getting Started as an Intermediary

Struggling to place a complex property finance case? 

As experts in their fields, our experienced brokers work with specialist lenders to help source the best deal for your client, whatever their property finance needs. With expertise in complex commercial, buy to let, short-term and development finance, our experience and relationships with lenders allow us to deliver exemplary service for you and your clients.  

Using our deal placement service, we’ll find the best property finance solution for your client, prepare it, and then submit it to the lender on your behalf. 

Or access our packaging service, where you send us your mortgage applications, and we’ll submit them to a lender you don’t have access to.

Professionals* - Other connected professionals, including accountants, solicitors and financial advisors should be registered with the ICO (Information Commissioner's Office) - https://ico.org.uk/ 

How long does it take to register?

We should be able to get you fully registered within 24 hours during the working week, often much sooner. If your case is urgent, please let us know, and we’ll do all we can to complete your registration more quickly. You don’t need to be ready to transact to register with us; it will save you time later if you register now! 

Why do I need to register?

Only once we’ve received your registration documents can we verify your details and log them onto our system. Our verification process involves checking your details with the FCA register, the NACFB members’ register and Companies House. Once this has been completed, you can transact with us. 

You will then be assigned a dedicated Consultant and Client relationship manager to work with you on all your cases. 

How will I be paid?

We won’t keep you waiting. Any fees received for introduced cases by the end of business on Tuesday each week will be paid out to introducers by the Friday of that week. 

How do our proc and deal placement fees work?

All fees are variable and are based on loan size and case complexity. Your consultant will discuss this with you at the start to ensure complete transparency.

How does the deal placement process work?

We work with you, the lender, and associated third parties throughout the deal placement process. As we are responsible for the advice given to your client, we will need to speak directly to them. However, please be assured that your client remains your client for this deal and any future transactions. 

Once you’ve contacted us with your enquiry, we review possible lenders and finance options. You then receive the indicative terms to check and send to your client. Once these are approved, we prepare a supporting proposal and submit your application.
