Forto Finance has launched in the UK mortgage and protection market.
The broker will support a range of clients and offer advice not only on residential mortgages, remortgages, buy-to-let lending and specialist property finance but also on protection.
Founded by mortgage and protection adviser, Anthony Curtis, and supported by operations manager, Esmé Rook, the firm has completed a pilot ahead of launch.
It will support a range of borrowers, including first-time buyers, home movers, self-employed applicants, high net worth individuals and property investors seeking specialist funding solutions – with a particular focus on expat borrowers.
Anthony Curtis, director of Forto Finance, (pictured) said: “We’ve been running a pilot since April and we now know the proposition works. The number of choices available to clients has increased significantly in recent years, while provider offers are evolving all the time.
“Clients need advice that helps them understand their options and make informed decisions. Our focus is on providing clear recommendations, responding quickly and helping clients make progress towards their financial goals.
“We’ve built Forto Finance around the belief that good advice should give people confidence to move forward. The focus on expat clients has come out of that.”
