Cardiff-based specialist mortgage broker Y3S has today opened its first satellite office outside of Wales. 

Based in Stockport, south of Manchester, Y3S will provide its specialist loan products and services to mortgage brokers and IFAs across the UK form its new location.

The new office will be staffed by Thomas Wall, Steve Corns and George Tuffin, all of whom are experienced in the provision of specialist loan brokering for the clients of mortgage intermediaries.

Barney Drake, COO at Y3S Group, said: “At a time when the industry is struggling to grow business volumes, Y3S is satisfying increasing demand for its own products and services through the addition of strategically placed satellite offices, the first being in Manchester.

“We see huge benefits for our broker introducers in being localised and this dovetails with our fleet of document couriers who can service clients anywhere in the UK in a few hours.”

Wall added: “Y3S has gained an enviable reputation in the second charge mortgage market for speed and quality of service as well as for sheer volume of business written.

“Marrying our brokering skills to Y3S’s slick systems and processes will produce a new addition to the ‘Northern Powerhouse’.”
