Omega joins with Personal Touch

The new company, Personal Touch Commercial Finance Ltd, will be headed by Omega FS managing director, Kevin Jones.

Omega has been in the commercial and residential mortgage market for 11 years and has acted as a specialist packager for many intermediaries who have needed help and advice in placing commercial mortgages as well as conduit for commercial lenders looking to increase their distribution.

Kevin Jones commenting on the new joint venture said, ‘We are looking forward to providing a commercial packaging service to all the Personal Touch members. In this specialist market, it is vital to ensure that the intermediary is provided with as wide a choice of lenders and lending options as possible, to ensure that the customer is given the best lending option and service. Our new joint venture will mean that customers of Personal Touch members will receive the best commercial service available.’

Kevin Cooke, Sales Director of commercial lender, Business Lending, commented, ‘ Omega, one of our first packaging partners, has proved to be a source of good quality business for us and I have no doubt that they will bring the same professionalism to the new joint venture with Personal Touch that they have demonstrated when dealing with us.’

Mike Allison MD at Personal Touch added, "As a continued part of our ‘supermarket’ strategy, we are always looking for new opportunities to increase the income streams for our members. This is another opportunity for our AR and DA members to benefit from a great deal of expertise in the commercial markets using a simple process that could substantially add to their bottom line"
