Specialist lender Market Financial Solutions (MFS) has joined Optimum ELITE’s panel of lenders.
The partnership will see Optimum ELITE’s network of intermediaries and brokers gain access to MFS’ range of bridging loans, buy-to-let (BTL) mortgages, and specialist finance products.
Optimum ELITE’s network of brokers provides financial solutions to firms of all sizes and industries, connecting their clients with lenders who can provide the best financial products for their needs.
MFS specialises in handling large loans, offering facilities up to £50m with terms between three and 24 months and also works with foreign national applicants, or those who have adverse credit histories.
The lender is currently sitting on more than £1bn in funding and is on track to achieve its goal of growing its loan book to £1.5bn by the end of 2023.
Head of national accounts at MFS, Karen Rodrigues, said: “Our customer service and ability to take on cases other lenders might shy away from is what sets us apart. Taking an innovative approach to lending, our experienced underwriters can navigate all the challenges that a case – and indeed the current economic landscape – might present. We always go the extra mile to make a deal happen.
“We look forward to working closely with Optimum ELITE, ensuring a wider range of brokers can access our leading specialist finance products. Brokers need optionality in the current climate, and we are ready to support their clients in a challenging market with fast and flexible loans, regardless of how complex a borrower’s needs might be.”
Business development manager at Optimum ELITE, Meg Burgoyne, added: “We are very excited to welcome MFS to our lender panel. MFS bring an innovative and comprehensive range of products to the table that allow us to further diversify our panel and empower our brokers to provide clients with a market leading service. We are very much looking forward to building long-term relationships with the team at MFS.”
