To secure a product your client is applying for you need to forward a full application by 8pm on the 22nd, ensuring you submit a full application which must include property details. You also need to confirm that a KFI has been given to the applicant(s).
After the 22nd BM Solutions will take over the mantle as HBOS’ lead brand for the specialist sector. BM already has a strong packager proposition and going forward will offer House 2 House and Self Build products as well.
