The partnership means that Tembo Money’s mortgage broker team will have access to April’s range of 5-15 year fixed rate mortgages, available up to 95% loan to value
Longer-term mortgage lender, April Mortgages, has formed a new strategic partnership with Tembo Money.
Tembo Money is a mortgage and savings platform which helps incorporate technology into mortgage advice, making it easier for borrowers to speak to brokers at a time that suits them, seven days a week.
The partnership means that Tembo Money’s mortgage broker team will have access to April’s range of 5-15 year fixed rate mortgages, available up to 95% loan to value.
Earlier this week, the lender announced that it will lend up to six times sole and joint income to FTBs, home movers & like-for-like remortgages. The products also offer built-in flexibility, with the fixed rate reducing over time as the borrower drops into a lower loan to value bracket. There are also no early repayment charges if the borrower moves house or uses their own funds to repay the mortgage.
Richard Dana, chief executive of Tembo Money, said: April Mortgages is doing something different, opening up the possibility of fixing the mortgage term for up to 15 years in a way that has not been available before in the UK mortgage market. After the volatility of the last few years there will certainly be some borrowers who would value that long-term certainty, and we look forward to working with April Mortgages to deliver long-lasting peace of mind to them.
Mark Eaton, COO at April Mortgages, said: We are passionate about working closely with brokers to deliver a better mortgage market for borrowers, listening to them about what they and their clients really need. Tembo Money has built a fantastic reputation, and we share the ethos of not only wanting to help our customers buy their dream home but stay in it too.
