Openwork goes live with international mortgages service

Openwork advisers will have access to more than 200 residential mortgage products available in over 30 countries worldwide through market leader Conti Financial Services Limited. The company has a staff of 20 and has been trading for over 10 years. It offers in-house processing and has a dedicated underwriting team for each country it operates in.

Viva Costa International, a leading specialist in the Spanish market will see Openwork advisers gain access to the company’s transparent on-line mortgage application tracker system (OMATS). The company has two dedicated offices in Spain as well as a UK base and commits to sending an Agreement in Principle within 48 hours to the adviser’s client.

Both Conti Financial Services Limited and Viva Costa International are available on an introducer basis.

Paul Shearman, Mortgage Proposition Director for Openwork commented: “With ever increasing numbers of clients retiring abroad, buying second homes and seeking new investment opportunities, there is little doubt that the overseas lending market will remain buoyant. Buying overseas, however, can also prove hazardous for the unitiated. Through Conti and Viva Costa we are providing our advisers with the expertise and support they need to guide clients to the right mortgage solution.”
