The bank has been selling mortgages in England and Wales since 2010 and had made a move into Scotland one of its priorities for this year.
Aldermore will offer its full product range in Scotland and has appointed former RBS man Steve Carruthers to head up its distribution team in the country.
Charles Haresnape, managing director of residential mortgages for Aldermore, (pictured) said: “We’re delighted to be extending our service into Scotland at a time when the housing market north of the border is starting to show signs of renewed confidence.
“Our range of both residential and buy-to-let mortgages will give brokers additional product choice and our personal service, which is based on skilled underwriting rather than automated credit scoring, will undoubtedly be a welcome development.”
