Skipton International has been shortlisted for a national award.
The Mortgage Introducer Excellence Awards are highly rated across the UK; Skipton has been shortlisted for ‘The Blacks Solicitors LLP Award for Buy-To-Let lender of the Year.’
The shortlisting stands as an impartial endorsement given the strict criteria, which states: “The Buy-to-Let Lender of the Year nominees should be able to demonstrate that a significant portion of their business is dedicated to delivering buy-to-let mortgage solutions. The winner of this award will be a lender who works side by side with brokers to consistently provide innovative, personalised and flexible lending solutions within the complex buy-to-let space.”
Lorraine McLean (pictured), Skipton’s Senior Mortgage Sales Manager, commented: “Skipton has carved out a niche UK buy-to-let proposition which allows British expats and foreign nationals – including Jersey and Guernsey residents – to purchase a UK property for rental purposes. Currently, 62% of our overall mortgage book is UK buy-to-lets and our openness in allowing lending to expats who no longer have a residential UK address is bucking the trend from the high street lenders.
“The whole team is thrilled to have been shortlisted and I am extremely proud of each and every one of them. We look forward to finding out the result at the awards night.”
