MAB continues network growth in Scotland

Established in 2009 by Harry McGeough and Derek Pollard, Glasgow-based Mortgage Force will now trade as Mortgage Advice Bureau.
 
Business Principal, Harry McGeough, commented: “We’re incredibly proud of how far the business has come. The growth that we have been able to achieve in the last eight years has seen us develop strong relationships with new home builders, estate agencies and lenders, positioning us as a key mortgage broker in the region.

"We see the move to join MAB as the natural next step in our growth, giving us access to expertise and resources which will enable us to take the business to the next level. We will gain access to a comprehensive mortgage proposition, a strong protection and general insurance offering and most importantly, the strength of a nationally recognised and highly successful brand.”

Mark Dyason held previous roles with Lloyds, HBOS, Capital Bank, Bank of Scotland and Connells Estate Agency prior to establishing Edinburgh Mortgage Advice in 2010. Now with a growing team of advisers and support staff, Mark has also made the decision to join MAB but will continue to trade as Edinburgh Mortgage Advice.

Mark said: “MAB offers us the firm foundations from which to continue to deliver our growth ambitions. We’re excited to be joining an industry leading and forward thinking team, which is focussed on influencing change in the industry and is at the forefront of new strategy and ideas.”

Mortgage Advice Bureau CEO, Peter Brodnicki, commented: “Our continued growth in Scotland is in no small part due to the fact that we focus on working with high quality firms who attract high quality advisers. MAB acts as a forward thinking strategic partner, rather than a traditional network, enabling businesses to realise their plans, no matter how ambitious. Whilst growth continues to be a priority for us, it is also very much about the right growth with the right businesses, which we feel both businesses typify.”
