Market Financial Solutions (MFS) has become the latest full member to join the Intermediary Mortgage Lenders Association (IMLA).
IMLA now comprises a combined total of 70 members, including 54 full members and 16 associate members.
Since its founding in 2006, MFS has provided a range of bridging loans and more recently buy-to-let mortgages, to both private individuals and commercial borrowers in the UK market.

The lender will be represented at IMLA meetings by Mike Cook, chief mortgage officer at MFS. As a full member, MFS will join the ranks of lenders comprising over 90% of gross UK mortgage lending, with IMLA representing their voice to regulators, the Government, and beyond.
Kate Davies, executive drector of IMLA, said: “It is a pleasure to welcome MFS as the latest full member of IMLA. MFS has established itself as a reputable and innovative lender that understands the importance of working closely with intermediaries to deliver the best outcomes for borrowers. We look forward to working with them as they join the discussion on key business issues facing intermediary-based mortgage lenders.”
