Connect for Intermediaries signs BlueZest deal

BlueZest has signed a deal with Connect for Intermediaries to distribute its mortgages through the network and packager.

The lender offers buy-to-let products including an 85% loan-to-value mortgage for properties in London and the South East.

BlueZest’s buy-to-let products have no early redemption charges after the first year, including 5-year fixes.

It also offers short-term mortgages for landlords and developers for conversations, refurbishments and new builds.

Liz Syms, chief executive for Connect for Intermediaries, said: “BlueZest has a truly innovative range of both long and short term mortgages, all developed around the landlord.

“Connect is really pleased to be one of the very few networks or packagers able to distribute these exciting new products.

“I am sure our AR’s and the brokers that use our packaging services will equally welcome the opportunity to offer these products, enabling them to place more business and provide yet more solutions to their BTL clients.”

Chris Slater, BlueZest’s chief executive, said: “We have begun our launch to market with a small number of very specialised networks and packagers.

“We wanted to introduce our innovative products through partners who intimately understand and specialise in the buy-to-let market, and Connect for Intermediaries fits that bill perfectly.

“So we look forward to a long, successful partnership.”
