Rookyard said: “It’s fantastic to be joining Blemain Group at such a buoyant period in time for the market. I’m excited to be part of a business which has such an innovative culture, to help create further growth.
“As a specialist lender with a strong appetite to lend, I’m looking forward to working with partners to develop and enhance key relationships and help the Group increase awareness throughout the intermediary market.”
Blemain Group works with the broker market to offer a range of products including residential first-charge mortgages, commercial mortgages, secured loans and bridging finance.
