Market Harborough Building Society has widened its remit so it will lend on properties in Scotland.

The firm said that this shows its “commitment to sharing its relationship-driven approach with even more brokers and borrowers”.

Market Harborough Building Society said that it would lend on properties in central Scotland and that it could assist customers with simple and complex circumstances.

This includes non-standard or multiple income sources, complex or unusual property types, joint borrower sole proprietor or multi-generation lending, borrowing into retirement, expats and high net worth and regulated bridging.

Market Harborough Building Society said that it would offer residential lending and regulated bridging finance from £200,000 to £5m up to a maximum of 80% loan to value (LTV).

The lender added that it would permit up to four applicants and incomes and had a tiered mortgage range with pricing linked to case complexity.

Iain Kirkpatrick, CEO of Market Harborough Building Society, said: “Brokers, including those based in Scotland, have consistently told us they want more choice, flexibility and more lenders who take the time to understand complex cases. Expanding into Scotland is a natural next step for us and launching around Burns Night feels especially fitting because it’s a moment that celebrates heritage, community spirit and shared values.”

“We’re excited to bring our passion, purpose and people-first approach to Scotland, supporting even more brokers and their clients with the same expertise and personal service we’re known for across England and Wales.”
