MBT’s broker members can access Hodge Bank’s specialist mortgages for their clients.
Advisers can run a single case and see if Hodge Bank is an appropriate lender. The decisions are based on real-time affordability calculations, up-to-date criteria and live product data.
MBT’s system also helps brokers evidence an audit trail for compliance.
Emma Graham (pictured), business development director for Hodge Bank, said: “We know affordability is key for intermediaries when it comes to fact finding and it’s key for us at Hodge.
“Our Hodge Resi and Hodge Resi Retire propositions are based around maximising affordability for customers lending up to and into retirement.
