Solent Mortgage Services (SMS) has become the exclusive partner for Openwork members wanting access to specialist help with mortgage enquiries.

SMS says this will help in particular with access to lenders such as Bank of China, GE Money and MBS Lending.

Openwork is the UK’s largest multi-tie mortgage and financial advice network comprising more than 2,000 financial advisers.

Ian Balfour, CEO at SMS, said the new partnership will give Openwork members access to a “one stop facility which will save them time and money as well as enhancing the service provided to customers””.
