The partnership gives MBT’s broker members instant access to Hodge’s specialist mortgage products, aiming to help brokers find suitable options for their clients quickly.
Emma Graham (pictured), business development director for Hodge, said: “We know affordability is key for intermediaries when it comes to fact finding and it’s key for us at Hodge.
“Our Hodge Resi and Hodge Resi Retire propositions are based around maximising affordability for customers lending up to and into retirement.
“As a lender that uses 100% of all incomes, research tools like MBT will highlight key areas of our criteria helping brokers place more specialist cases for their customers.”
Brokers using MBT can run a single case and instantly check if Hodge is a suitable lender, based on real-time affordability calculations, current criteria and live product data.
The process aims to make case submissions smoother and support compliance checks.
Tanya Toumadj, chief executive officer at MBT, said: “We’re delighted to add Hodge for Intermediaries to our award-winning affordability, criteria and sourcing platform.
“Hodge brings a range of specialist solutions that are easily identified as appropriate for the case on the MBT system, enhancing our offering to our broker partners.
“Working with the Hodge team to onboard has been a pleasure, and we look forward to continuing to develop the partnership for the benefit of advisers and their clients.”
