Nick Jones, mortgage sales and marketing director at Access Financial Services, said: “Today Access FS’s mortgage division is reporting its best ever year, with revenue up almost 40% from a year ago.

“Over 2025, we grew our adviser community and enhanced our proposition with an internal referral initiative, ‘Access All Areas’, individual microsites for each of our advisers, a mentorship programme, an expanded mortgage panel, the expansion of our offer to include second charge loans, and a new specialist packaging division.
