Pepper Homeloans has extended its distribution to now include the Legal & General Mortgage Club.

Pepper has up until now restricted the distribution of its mortgage range to L&G Key Partners and a number of specialist packagers and distributors. However, the lender says now the time is now right to open its doors to more brokers.

Jeff Knight, head of marketing at Pepper, said: “As we continue to invest in more staff and strengthen our resources, we want to expand our distribution to give brokers greater choice in the way they access our services.

“We’re delighted to become part of the L&G Mortgage Club and look forward to working with their brokers over the coming months.”

Jeremy Duncombe, director of L&G Mortgage Club, added: “Pepper has been investing heavily in its mortgage business and has ambitious plans for the future. Their specialist range of mortgage products will be a welcome addition to our full L&G Mortgage Club and will help brokers capitalise on market opportunities that they may not have dealt with previously.”
