Brokers tap into doubled commissions with large secured loans
Tap into doubled commissions
Having just completed a £250,000 loan with Blemain, Nemo’s largest ever loan at £196,000 and numerous Shawbrook loans well over £100,000 it is clear that the secured loan market is proving more popular for clients raising large sums.
Brokers love it too – the same amount of work and double the income – why wouldn’t you? The spate of new low rate, high value products has created a lucrative opportunity for mortgage brokers, especially those who can identify suitable clients from within their database.
So who should they look for? The couple on a tracker? The guy with high ERC’s? The high flyers who have run up a load of credit and can’t get a mortgage due to tight affordability criteria?
It is all of these and much more. We are writing commission cheques for between £2500 and £3500 on a regular basis so there is every incentive for brokers to look for these top end loans.
Many borrowers are preconditioned (by negativity in the media) in to thinking they can’t borrow. If brokers have not emailed their clients to tell them about the extraordinary flexibility in the secured loan market, then surely it makes sense to do so.
As a reminder of the chunkier loans available, please see below. There is even more choice for loans below £100,000 – adverse credit catered for
