MJ Group has joined the Association of Short Term Lenders as an associate member.
The property valuation specialist, founded in 2006, is an advisor to more than 50 lenders, including international banks, property funds and developers.
MJ Group managing director Robert Cohen says: “In the world of short-term mortgage lending, it’s the Association of Short Term Lenders that sets the benchmark for lenders when it comes to high standards and customer focus.
“The recent [May] launch of the Certified Practitioner in Specialist Property Finance programme, as a joint initiative between the Association of Short Term Lenders, Financial Intermediary and Broker Association, and the London Institute of Banking & Finance demonstrates the crucial role the association plays in continuing to drive new standards of professionalism.”
Association of Short Term Lenders chief executive Vic Jannels adds: “Short-term lending is a vital cog in the property industry, providing a funding solution for a wide variety of circumstances, and it’s important that we work closely with other associated businesses, such as valuers, to ensure we continue to deliver the best possible experience for customers.
“This is why associate members are so important to the Association of Short Term Lenders, and our growing membership reflects the increasing number of like-minded businesses that want to demonstrate a commitment to high standards.”
