The Money Centre’s success has been built on its service both to its clients and its panel of lenders. It helps clients maximise their returns and develop their portfolios. The panel of lenders were so impressed that they dubbed the company ‘The Harrods of the buy-to-let mortgage market’. The fact that 80% of its lending is either repeat business or referrals is clear evidence of this.

Due to the level of service it provides to lenders, The Money Centre is able to offer exclusive deals for clients, including competitive pricing and greater flexibility, such as offering a fixed rate, which often is neither available from lenders direct nor available to other brokers.

To ensure high service standards are maintained in this market, which currently remains unregulated, The Money Centre is a member of The National Association of Commercial Finance Brokers (NACFB), an organisation of which the Directors are founding members, providing a Code of Practice registered with the Office of Fair Trading. The company ensures the mortgage process runs smoothly and efficiently and aims to do all it can to support clients with buy-to-let investments.
