Norton Home Loans, part of the Norton Financial Services Group, has joined the lender panel of L&G’s Mortgage Club, giving member advisers access to the lender’s full suite of second charge mortgage products.
The move brings a long-standing specialist player into one of the largest distribution channels in the market.
With more than 50 years of experience in specialist lending, Norton positions itself as a lender able to support advisers with cases that fall outside mainstream criteria.
This includes borrowers with minor credit issues, affordability constraints, varied income profiles or non-standard properties. Advisers are given direct access to underwriters, with the lender emphasising a broker-first, common-sense approach to assessing applications.
L&G’s Mortgage Club remains a major force in mortgage distribution, supporting thousands of advisers with access to lenders, technology and training.
Norton’s appointment strengthens the club’s specialist proposition at a time when demand for flexible solutions around debt consolidation, equity release and capital raising continues to grow.
