With more than 50 years of experience in specialist lending, Norton supports brokers with cases that fall outside standard criteria, including complex credit histories, affordability challenges, and non-standard income or property types.

Its broker-first approach combines flexible criteria, individual case assessment, and direct access to underwriters.

As one of the UK’s most established mortgage networks, MAB supports over 2,000 advisers with access to a wide range of lenders, technology tools, and marketing support.

The addition of Norton to the panel gives MAB members greater flexibility when placing more challenging cases, especially in a market where client circumstances are becoming increasingly complex.

The panel agreement covers Norton’s first charge product suite and is now live for MAB advisers across the UK.

Norton Home Loans head of sales David Binney says: “Mortgage Advice Bureau is one of the most respected and progressive networks in the market, so joining its lender panel is a major step forward for us.”

MAB strategic lender relationships director Rachel Geddes adds: “Norton Home Loans brings a level of knowledge that is hard to replicate.”

“With more than 50 years of experience in this part of the market, they understand the types of challenges our advisers deal with day to day, from credit blips and unusual income to more complicated affordability scenarios.”
