Twenty7tec has added Ecology Building Society to its Source module improving adviser access to a range of products.
Ecology Building Society offers ethical savings accounts along with a range of self-build and renovation mortgages.
The mortgage products are “dedicated to supporting innovative community housing projects and providing mortgages to create environmentally-friendly homes, including bringing derelict buildings back into sustainable use”.
This includes green home improvements, off-site construction, shared ownership and co-housing.
Nakita Moss, lender relationships – team manager at Twenty7tec, said: “We’re thrilled to collaborate with Ecology Building Society and are pleased to have onboarded their products and criteria which are now available via Source
“Regardless of the complexity of a case, Ecology Building Society is eager to find out more, offering a diverse range of mortgage products available to promote sustainable living. They embrace non-standard construction types, assist in renovation projects aimed at significantly enhancing property energy efficiency and extend support to various initiatives such as affordable housing and off-site construction.
“We’re pleased intermediaries can now benefit from increased visibility of these products and support Ecology Building Society in strengthening their distribution.’’
Kim Lugtenaar, mortgage product manager at Ecology Building Society, added: “Joining Twenty7tec’s Source makes it easier for brokers to find out more about our mortgage products and lending criteria.
“This is the latest improvement we’ve made to our services for intermediaries as we continue to develop our product range and mortgage proposition to make it simpler and quicker to do business with Ecology. Much of our lending is for complex, non-standard projects and brokers have a significant role to play, supporting their clients with expert advice throughout the process.”
