The Tipton and Coseley Building Society
Introduction
At the Tipton, they provide mortgages across England and Wales. Tipton are dedicated to providing an excellent service to brokers and helping brokers help their clients. The society’s mission is to enable clients to own their homes at all stages of life and they do this through a range of products and specialist lending criteria. From 100% LTV Family Assist mortgages, to Retirement Interest Only mortgages there is a product for everyone.
They also operate a manual underwriting process, meaning each application is considered by a real person and lack of credit history or historical late payments won’t generate a ”computer says no” result.
Key Features:
- Mortgage Surgery: Our mortgage underwriters host a Mortgage Surgery clinic, allowing our Intermediary Support Team to discuss any non standard cases. This means we can get an initial decision on your complex cases before a DIP has been submitted. Simply email us at newbusiness@thetipton.co.uk to discuss your case.
- No Credit Scoring: Our manual underwriting process means that we can consider each case on its own merits, rather than using computer-based credit scoring systems.
- Later Life / RIO Mortgages: If your clients are looking to borrow into/during their retirement, our Later Life and RIO mortgage ranges are available to help. We will also consider lending on purpose built retirement properties.
- Contractors: We will underwrite long term subcontractors on an employed basis, using gross income to determine their maximum level of borrowing. We also have criteria in place to assist those on short term renewable contracts.
- Self Employed Applicants: Our lending criteria allows us to consider applications from sole traders, partners and limited company directors. Subject to acceptable proof of income.
