Sam Kirtikar, managing director at Clever Lending, said: “We are delighted to be working in partnership with Bluestone Mortgages. Our expertise and experience in the first charge market will deliver a positive impact on their distribution and will also help provide a better service to UK consumers who are currently underserved by mainstream lenders. I’m very much looking forward to a successful partnership.”
