Kent Reliance partners up with TMA

Specialist mortgage lender Kent Reliance has partnered with The Mortgage Alliance (TMA) to offer a direct submission route for its brokers.

The lender, part of OneSavings Bank plc, also hopes the partnership will help to extend its specialist distribution network. 

First Complete and Pink currently have access to Kent Reliance’s specialist services, and the TMA has now joined its fellow group members. Kent Reliance’s National Account Manager, Emily Machin, is set to provide ongoing support for TMA’s brokers, making sure its clients are able to access large property portfolios, homes in multiple occupancy (HMOs), complex income cases, large property cases and expats.

“TMA are delighted to partner with Kent Reliance to further demonstrate how TMA is continuing to support Directly Authorised Intermediaries,” David Copland, Director of Mortgage Services at TMA, said.

“Kent Reliance’s strength and innovation in buy-to-let (BTL) and homes with multiple occupancies (HMO) provides wider choices for our intermediaries’ customers. Coupled with this, their recognition of intermediary support to product transfers is a win-win all round.”

Adrian Moloney, Sales Director for OneSavings Bank, said of the partnership: “We are delighted to announce a partnership with The Mortgage Alliance. With the buy-to-let market evolving towards the specialist sector it is important that we extend our reach to as many brokers as possible, in order to offer them greater choice. The relationship with TMA will provide a direct submission route for their members and will complement our existing distribution channel.”
