Norton Home Loans has announced a new partnership with the digital mortgage broker, Habito.

Habito uses technology to search for products from over 90 lenders, and the platform allows customers to access free mortgage advice. The platform also provides legal and survey services to support customers through the home-buying process.

Through the partnership, Norton will offer its first charge mortgage products via the Habito platform, broadening broker access to its specialist lending solutions.

Norton’s first charge mortgage range is currently available to a select group of brokers through Habito’s pilot programme, which is already live and has successfully its first cases.

The move follows Norton’s recent partnership with L&C, highlighting its intent to continue growing its reach across both digital and traditional channels.

Head of sales at Norton Home Loans, David Binney, said: "We’re proud to join forces with Habito, a well-known name in the digital broker space. It’s an important step for us as we continue to grow our distribution and ensure more brokers can access our specialist products through the platforms that work best for them. The pilot is already delivering results, and we’re looking forward to seeing it develop further."

Chief executive officer at Habito, Ying Tan, added: "At Habito, one of our main aims is to ensure our Mortgage Experts have access to a broader range of options for customers who don’t fit the standard mould.

"Norton Home Loans has real strength in the specialist space, and this partnership means more borrowers can benefit from their flexible, thoughtful approach to lending."
