Afin Bank has added L&C Mortgages to its broker panel.

The mortgage lender offers residential and buy-to-let mortgages to customers poorly supported by mainstream lenders because of their circumstances, such as the self-employed and contract workers, people with complex incomes, high-net-worth customers and foreign nationals with a UK work visa.

Afin assesses each borrower’s financial situation and individually underwrites each mortgage.

National key account manager at Afin Bank, Anum Mahmood, stated: “We’re delighted to be working with L&C Mortgages, supporting its advisers and reaching even more borrowers struggling to get a mortgage because they don’t fit the tick box approach of many lenders.

“L&C will have full access to all our mortgages, from our core Prime range through to our propositions designed for the needs of people like qualified professionals and ‘asset rich’ income light’ high-net-worth borrowers. We look forward to building a strong partnership and helping deliver great outcomes for its customers.”

Associate director, communications at L&C Mortgages, David Hollingworth, added: "Our advisers are dealing with thousands of enquiries each month, so it‘s crucial that we have as wide a spread of lending solutions as possible for our customers.

"Afin Bank’s ability to take a more flexible and individualised approach will give more options for those with more complex needs, whether it’s high-net-worth, foreign nationals or professionals. We’re therefore delighted to partner with Afin Bank to boost the choices for those that may not fit the requirements of high street lenders."
