The relationship means that MSN members will recommend Conti to clients who are seeking overseas property finance. It will provide members with access to trained staff, the best rates worldwide, an online application process, and high levels of commission. Conti will also provide support in the form of an online sales toolkit, providing everything that MSN members need to generate overseas mortgage sales from their existing client base, with minimal outlay from their own business.
Clare Nessling, Conti’s operations director, said: “We’re delighted to become MSN’s exclusive partner for overseas mortgages.
“Despite the UK property slump, overseas mortgage providers have a healthy appetite for lending to foreign investors. Bargain property prices and historically low interest rates are also making it much more affordable to buy overseas property.
“If intermediaries haven't yet considered the overseas mortgage market as a source of additional income, there may never be a better time to do so.”
All mortgage applications will be processed and underwritten by Conti’s teams of specialists, who know the exact mortgage application requirements for each overseas lender. It provides a complete hand-holding service, advising on the most favourable lending rates in the country of interest, and negotiating competitive loan-to-value schemes over timescales to suit the client.
