Darlington Building Society has been added to the lender panel of Mortgage Intelligence, giving network members access to the Society’s full mortgage product range.

The partnership is designed to support brokers working with clients who need a more flexible approach to mortgage lending. Darlington Building Society is known for its expertise in handling complex cases and assessing each application on its individual merits.

The Society offers a wide variety of mortgage solutions, including for borrowers with non-standard income, those seeking lending in later life, and customers buying unique property types. Its range also covers skilled workers on VISAs, self-build projects, and holiday lets.

Earlier this year, Darlington Building Society enhanced its skilled worker VISA mortgage offering by removing the minimum time remaining on VISAs for applicants seeking 90% loan-to-value (LTV) mortgages. For 95% LTV mortgages, the Society eliminated the minimum income threshold. These changes aim to provide greater flexibility and accessibility for skilled workers looking to purchase property in the UK.

Christopher Blewitt, Head of Mortgage Distribution at Darlington Building Society, said:

“Mortgage Intelligence is well known for giving advisers access to lenders and products that suit the types of cases brokers deal with day to day.”

This partnership helps us widen our reach and work with even more brokers looking for flexible criteria and a human approach to underwriting. We know that not every case is straightforward, and we’re here to work with advisers to find the right solution, even when the situation is a little more complex.”

Graham Wood, Head of Products and Partnerships at Mortgage Intelligence, commented:

“We’re very pleased to welcome Darlington Building Society to our panel. Their approach to lending is practical, flexible, and focused on the needs of the individual, which is exactly what our members value.

Whether it’s self-employed clients, buyers with more unusual circumstances, or properties that fall outside standard criteria, Darlington’s willingness to assess cases on their merits will be a welcome addition to our network.”
