Accord Mortgages is now on Countrywide Mortgage Services’ panel of mortgage lenders.

The news follows the merger between Yorkshire and Chelsea building societies earlier this year, which saw Accord Mortgages become the sole intermediary brand.

Grenville Turner, chief executive of Countrywide, said: “We are ‘delighted to build on our longstanding relationship with Chelsea Building Society by having Accord Mortgages join our panel. We look forward to working alongside the Accord team to ensure we provide our customers with the widest range of competitive mortgage products to extend our position as a market leader.””
