Access FS currently has 75 lenders on its mortgage panel.

WIDE-RANGING OFFERING

West Brom Building Society offers a wide product range, such as shared ownership and low deposit mortgages, including specialised, low deposit, new build mortgages. Some products are available up to a 40-year term.

“I know it will provide our advisers with the level of service and turnaround times that we consider essential.

“Access had an exceptional year of growth last year, growing turnover by 46% in 2024, so we are constantly looking for good lenders and providers that will add real value to our advisers and their clients and West Brom definitely fits that requirement.”

Alasdair McDonald, head of intermediaries at West Brom Building Society, added: “Access FS is one of the fastest-growing adviser firms in the country, renowned for its high standards, so being on their panel was a priority for us.

“We are confident that we can provide the excellent service that we are known for, while offering Access brokers a wide range of competitive rates and products, and a level of flexibility that sets us apart from other providers.”
