the remortgage?
looking to remortgage their homes.
Alternative lenders may have more
flexible lending criteria than the
High Street, which can be helpful
for borrowers with unique financial
circumstances. LendInvest specifically
supports this type of borrower
including the self-employed,
key workers, and those with the
occasional blip on their credit history.
Additionally, alternative lenders are
more willing to finance in situations
where traditional banks may be more
hesitant. They also offer flexible terms
and a clear exit strategy to ensure
affordability for the borrower.
While certain aspects of the high
street mortgage are inaccessible,
alternative lenders offer bespoke
support throughout the process,
including direct contact with
underwriters – LendInvest included.
As the world evolves, alternative
lenders like LendInvest are also
evolving by offering more innovative
lending solutions, oentimes
delivered through cuing-edge
technology. A platform like
LendInvest’s Mortgages Portal can
simplify the residential mortgage
journey for brokers through fast and
credit-backed decisions in principle
(DIPs), streamlined verification
processes and real-time case updates.
The combination of technology,
innovative products and access to
expert support can set alternative
lenders apart from the high street,
allowing brokers to support their
clients looking to remortgage their
home regardless of their situation. As
spring begins, it’s still too early to tell
if 2025 is the year of the remortgage,
but those who embrace an alternative
landscape stand the best opportunity
to thrive. ●
