Access Financial Services has launched a specialist financial packaging division to cater to complex cases amid rising demand.
The new division will offer regulated and unregulated bridging loans, secondary mortgages, semi-commercial and commercial mortgages, as well as development finance.
Access says the move will give its 280 advisor members greater control over the client process, improve communications and reduce external costs.
The network will offer a market-wide proposition, working with lenders such as Interbay, MT Finance, Pepper Money, Interbridge, West One Loans and Shawbrook.
Nick Jones, sales and marketing director at Access Financial Services, said: “We already have some fantastic brokers writing bridging and commercial loans.
“But so far we haven’t really done any real specialist packaging.
“And the second shipment was also a gap in our offering.
“Not anymore.
“This represents the next evolution of Access FS – we are planting a flag in the specialist finance space.
“The new packaging division gives our mortgage and protection advisors more choice for their customers.
“It will significantly enhance Access FS’s ability to meet the growing demand for specialist financial solutions, allowing the company to better support our network of advisors.”
Access is launching a series of educational webinars to ensure advisors consider advice across the market.
It says mortgage income grew 32% between January and the end of September this year.
