Accord Mortgages is a dedicated intermediary-only lender and part of Yorkshire Building Society Group. They exist to help brokers look after what matters most, their clients.
At Accord you can expect a common-sense approach, not just to lending but applied to everything they do, with every case for every broker.
Flexible underwriting
If you have a trickier case to place, their flexible underwriting is there to make complex easy.
There's no referrals, no ‘committees’ and certainly no special treatment based on the number of cases given. In fact, in 2023 over 28% of cases had underwriting flexibility applied under our common-sense lending approach.
£5k Deposit Mortgage
This innovative £5K Deposit Mortgage product is designed to help your first-time buyer clients purchase their first home, faster - with just a £5K deposit. Available for LTVs between 95.01% and 99%
Joint Borrower Sole Proprietor
For clients who can't borrow enough on their own, they can add a family member to their mortgage. It could be helpful for first time buyers with lower incomes, but any home move could use it.
Cascade Score
Cascade Score is an alternative product range to give another option to brokers whose clients don’t meet Accord’s higher loan-to-value (LTV) scorecard but do meet their standard scorecard.
Boost LTI
Accord’s Boost LTI range offers up to 5.5 times LTI for clients with household incomes of £60,000 and over who need a small stretch to their income multiples to achieve their borrowing goals.
Deposit Unlock
With up to 95% LTV on lending for new build houses, it’s a great way Accord can help brokers help more clients onto and up the property ladder, including those with smaller deposits.
A Buy to Let lender, not just a lender that does Buy to Let
Accord offers top-slicing, lower ICR for basic rate or zero rate taxpayers and like-for-like re-mortgages; new build, no minimum income and lending in Scotland, Plus our criteria allows first-time landlords, portfolio landlords, and landlords looking to Let to Buy, and we have a range of ERC free 5-year products.
Direct access to Underwriters
Once a case is placed a dedicated underwriter, who you can contact directly, will manage the case from start to finish.
Technology that saves you time
Accord’s MSO mortgage platform has been integrated with sourcing systems, so there's no need to re-key information when submitting Decisions in Principles with us.
