L&G Mortgage Club celebrates 15th anniversary
Share
Legal & General Mortgage Club, the UK mortgage market’s first mortgage club, is launching a campaign to celebrate its 15th anniversary.
During that time the club has dealt with £200bn of mortgage applications since it was conceived in 1995, the first of its kind and it now has over 8,000 members.
To celebrate its birthday, Legal & General Mortgage Club is offering new recruits (and infrequent users) £15 per approved mortgage completion for the first fifteen applications until June 2010. Existing Club members will also have the opportunity to enter prize draws to win prizes such as a camcorder and digital camera.
Ben Thompson, director of mortgages at Legal & General, says: “15 years is ancient in mortgage club terms, in fact you could say that we are the Godfathers of this market.
“Back in 1995, when we launched the club, proc fees didn’t exist but they have become the basis of the distribution model ever since. In that time we have shown that we can provide lenders with a tightly controlled, high quality channel that has allowed us to secure tranches of funding and exclusive products that we wouldn’t otherwise have got.
“Now, of course, the Club is about much more than just mortgages, and we offer a range of extra services such as HIPs, personal loans, equity release, conveyancing, high net worth loans and compliance services, to name but a few.”
