We are known as the 130 year old start up. Reliance Bank was the Salvation Army's private bank until 2 years ago. Where following a change of ownership the shareholders made the decision to open the bank up to the wider market and as such one of the key objectives of this approach is to grow the Bank's mortgage proposition and mortgage book through ongoing positive relationships with professional mortgage intermediaries.

We have over the last 2 years changed and adapted to the ever changing mortgage market place and our mortgage criteria reflects this.

The bank's mission is to help people onto the housing ladder, mainly through shared ownership as well as supporting first time buyers and key workers.

The initial feedback we have had has been positive, where brokers are able to speak to someone to see if they are able to place a case with us prior to submitting paperwork for an AIP. We have also had positive feedback as to our approach regarding gifted deposits and how we are more felixable compared to the majority of other lenders.

While our current website is indeed built for consumers and not for professional mortgage intermediaries we are currently looking at a solution for you so please bear with us.

However all key criteria information has ben supplied to the club so if you have any questions please feel free to call one of the underwriters who will be able to assist you. We will be looking to provide some repayment calculators on the main wedbite in due course. So please watch this space!
