Clever Lending has joined the HomeLoan Partnership (HLP) network as a provider of second charge mortgages, commercial and bridging finance. 

The master broker will handle loan enquiries, packaging and lender liaison for HLP’s network of over 380 advisers.

Paul Day, sales and development director at Clever Lending, said: “This partnership is a perfect match. In a post-MCD environment, second charge mortgages are quickly becoming a recognised financial solution and we hope to support HLP’s great reputation in adding true value to the network, advisers and their clients.

“With our expertise, ethos and focus on client outcome, we are not only proud to be working with HLP, but confident in presenting the best solution via a first class service. I’m confident this will be a very rewarding partnership for both companies.”

Neil Hoare, commercial director at HLP, added: “Since the new regulations came in March, we know that bringing the second charge option into the adviser/client discussion is important but for many advisers the market is relatively new.  That is why it is key for us to work with business partners who are not just there to place a case but are seen as an extension of the advisers firm and integral in delivering good customer outcomes.

“We look forward to working with Clever Lending as second charge lending continues its journey into the mainstream secured lending market.”
