Just Mortgages has launched a specialist new homes division.

The Just Mortgages New Homes Division will cover the whole of England and Wales, launching with 10 specialist new homes mortgage advisers. It plans to double this number within 12 months.

The division will be led by Just Mortgages’ business development director, Paul Wilson. He will report into national operations director John Phillips and will be supported by divisional sales manager Peter Carter.

The New Homes Division has will deal with everything from 10 unit developments upwards. Where required, the Just Mortgages advisers will even work from the house builders’ site office, providing specialist new homes mortgage advice for every person visiting the new properties as they require it.

Phillips said: “Just Mortgages has become well known amongst house builders for providing specialist mortgage advice for new build properties. Demand from house builders for this specialist service has increased to such an extent that it makes perfect sense to launch a new homes division.

“There is forecast to be 74 million people in the UK by 2020 and it will be essential to increase the number of new homes to accommodate this volume of people, therefore the demand for mortgages for new homes will only increase as the level of house building goes up.

“As a result we launch with ten advisers covering the whole of England and Wales but we expect this to increase rapidly as we provide a more wide-ranging and comprehensive service to both local and national house builders and their customers.”
