Buckinghamshire Building Society has announced that two new partners have joined its exclusive “Platinum Partner Programme”.
HHH, a specialist brokerage dealing mainly with holiday let mortgages, and MPC Direct, a brokerage based in West Yorkshire, are the latest members to be awarded platinum status by the specialist lender.
Buckinghamshire’s programme launched in 2021 and offers benefits to firms such as dedicated underwriters, expedited case progression and access to exclusive events and training workshops.
The society, based in the Buckinghamshire village of Chalfont St Giles, offers simple savings accounts to its members, as well as specialist mortgage products to customers through intermediaries.
Buckinghamshire head of mortgage sales, Claire Askham, commented: “The addition of HHH and MPC Direct to our Platinum Partner Programme is really positive news and reinforces our commitment to supporting brokers who regularly deal with complex cases.
“We have ambitious plans for our Platinum Programme this year and aim to offer significant added value to our new and existing partners across England and Wales.”
Commenting on joining the society’s programme, HHH director, Mark Stallard, said: “As a broker that focuses almost entirely on the second home and holiday let market, it’s refreshing to work with a lender that understands what our client base needs. The recent addition of an expat holiday let product along with regular positive tweaks to policy, allows us more options than ever to find the right mortgage product for our clients.”
Director at MPC Direct, Dave Stringer, added: “When I established MPC Direct in 2004, my aim was to offer a tailored service to clients with complicated requirements. Specialist lenders like Buckinghamshire Building Society allow me to do that.”
