Mortgage Express celebrates 10th Anniversary

Tim Dawson, managing director of Mortgage Express, says that the company has gone from strength to strength over the past ten years, reaching targets, capturing substantial market shares across its entire product range and winning many industry awards and accolades.

“Mortgage Express has worked hard to forge strong relationships with key business and media partners and as such has delivered record volumes in August,” said Mr Dawson.

Key milestones outlined by Mr Dawson during his speech included;

The purchase of MX by Bradford & Bingley in 1997

Its first £1billion securitisation of Buy to Let in 2001

Launch of Self Cert in 2002 – which now brings in 20% of overall business

Launch of its popular Lifetime range in 2003

New systems to meet the needs of regulation in 2004

“One of Mortgage Express’ greatest success stories is our highly popular Lifetime mortgage range, launched in 2003. In the space of one short year we achieved a huge 36% of the intermediary lifetime market,” said Mr Dawson.

“Our mission statement is clear and one we keep in mind every day – to be the natural choice for innovative mortgage solutions. As such we plan to continue to dominate the specialist lending markets. We are currently the leading Buy-to-Let lender and plan to remain so. We also intend to remain a major player in our other specialist markets such as Lifetime and Self-Cert,” he continued.
