Stuart Bryce, business development manager at The Mansfield, said: “At The Mansfield we want intermediaries to have good quality mortgages for key market segments.

“In the residential sector, we have a competitively positioned fixed rate mortgage suitable for first-time buyers. We’re also supporting older applicants with a product available to age 80.

“Shared Ownership applicants with us can now benefit from purchasing up to 75% of the property value on a mortgage up to 95% of the share.

“Our BTL range has been further strengthened with the improved fixed rate as intermediaries and landlords recognise the benefit of our manual underwriting.

“2015 will see opportunities for the broker community to provide customers with advice on a wide range of enquiries. For customers with particular needs, which are not being accommodated by mainstream lenders, The Mansfield offers a competitive portfolio.”
