Checkmate Mortgages is the most exciting development taking place in the UK mortgage market today.

With capital provided by a consortium of investors including Stephen Knight, RIT Capital Partners PLC and Lord Rothschild’s family interests, Directors who built GMAC RFC and Private Label before it, have re-grouped to launch Checkmate Mortgages. Private Label grew to become the UK’s largest privately owned distributor of mortgages. GMAC RFC UK was built from a virtual standing start and grew to be the UK’s 10th largest lender in just 5 years.

When we are ready to launch our new business in 2009, current product thinking and distribution management techniques will be ripped up. Next-generation technology will take Point of Sale Offers to a new level of service. Intermediary firms of every type, and their customers, will benefit from the innovation. Funders will enjoy the quality of lending arising from the application of the most recent, and sophisticated, mortgage underwriting techniques.
