Users of Criteria Hub, the criteria-based sourcing solution from Mortgage Brain, will now be able to include Central Trust in their searches.

Mortgage brokers using Criteria Hub are able to search across thousands of different criteria employed by different mortgage lenders to identify which are most suitable for their clients.

Criteria Hub’s system data is managed and verified by lenders.

Central Trust is a secured loan specialist and has been lending for more than 30 years providing solutions for many different customer scenarios.

It currently provides loans of between £10,000 and £250,000 across terms ranging from three to 25 years, and up to a maximum loan-to-value (LTV) of 75%.

Maeve Ward, commercial director at Central Trust, said: “We are delighted to go live on Criteria Hub.

“Brokers play a vital role in helping borrowers find the best second charge funding available to them, and we are keen to support Criteria Hub as it is clear that it provides time-saving benefits for brokers and their clients.”

Neil Wyatt, sales and marketing director at Mortgage Brain, added: “There is undeniable momentum growing behind Criteria Hub, with brokers able to source across dozens of different lenders and thousands of criteria when using the solution.

“This can save brokers invaluable time, quickly helping them identify the most appropriate lenders. That’s no mean feat given the speed at which products and criteria have changed since the onset of the pandemic.”
