July 14th, 2021: Harpenden Building Society has won the ‘Best Local Building Society’ category at the prestigious What Mortgage Awards for a 7th consecutive year.
The Society, recognised during what has been an unprecedented, challenging period in time, has worked tirelessly to serve its communities and customers throughout the pandemic and rollout of Brexit, providing uninterrupted support to its customers.
As a specialist lender, our products and services have never been more relevant, not only to our core, local market but also with our network of brokers and customers across the UK. Our reputation for a personal, common-sense approach using good judgement and sound lending practice when assessing mortgage applications remains a constant feature in the way our team conducts business. Our experts are experienced at finding solutions to complex lending scenarios, all factors which have led to this ongoing awards success.
Harpenden’s range of owner occupied lending products provides options for Residential, Guarantor, Self-Employed and Contractor mortgages. A specialist product range also supports lending for Self-Build and Development mortgages, Second Homes, Holiday-let, Buy to Let, Consumer Buy to Let, and Bridging facilities.
Sarah Howe, Chief Executive at Harpenden Building Society said: “We’ve been pulling out all the stops during these challenging times. We recognise that the last year has been difficult for many. The Harpenden team has been working hard to create more ‘financial certainty’ for our customers and broker partners amongst the ‘uncertainty’ caused by the pandemic and Brexit. Whether it’s been retaining a service in a Covid friendly environment in our local branches; the launching of new products and services to best meet our customer needs; or the supporting of our communities, our aim has constantly been to be there for those we serve. We are thrilled to have been recognised as the ‘Best Local Building Society’ for a 7th year in a row – the number 7 has lots of positive associations, in the Society’s case it’s retaining this award!”
