StrideUp added to PMS Mortgage Club lending panel
03 October 2023
The innovative home purchase plan provider StrideUp has been added to the PMS Mortgage Club lending panel.
The development provides PMS Mortgage Club members with access to StrideUp’s residential product range of flexible Home Purchase Plans (HPP), which allows up to 85% LTV and 6x income multiples at rates starting from 6.49%. StrideUp is committed to empowering the next generation of homeowners through accessible, inclusive, and adaptable home finance solutions.
The StrideUp suite of home finance solutions have been specifically designed to support people from diverse backgrounds with their homeownership aspirations, especially those left behind by mainstream lenders.
StrideUp adopts a pragmatic approach to underwriting and does not base its decisions on credit-scores, meaning that each application is assessed on its own merit and its choice of products consists of 2, 5 & 10-year fixed rate options. A Home Purchase Plan is an alternative to traditional mortgage financing for individuals, who want to purchase or refinance a home whilst adhering to religious principles.
Intermediaries who have FCA HPP permissions can advise and submit business directly to StrideUp, however for those intermediaries who are not HPP authorised, the customer can be referred to StrideUp who will provide the advice to the customer. A procuration fee is paid for all completed cases whether the intermediary advises or refers the customer.
