Complete FS hosts ‘Blockbuster’ Specialist Lender Expo

23 June 2017

Complete FS, the South Coast based packager and distributor, hosts its 15th annual Specialist Lender Expo at the Ageas Hilton Hotel, Southampton on the 21st September.
 
This year’s event is based on a homage to Blockbuster films past and present and in true Holywood fashion, the red carpet will be laid out to welcome the Expo’s largest ever attendance to what has become the strongest event for intermediaries in the South of England, with the widest selection of specialist lenders at a single venue.
 
This is the first time that the Expo has been at the Hilton Ageas Bowl. The move comes as the Expo has outgrown its regular venue to accommodate increasing numbers of delegates, lenders and service providers.
 
The event will include over 30 exhibitors from the specialist lending sector ending the seminar with a Lender Panel Debate. This is bound to be very topical, especially to advisers who are interested in hearing opinions about the potential effect of the new BTL Portfolio Lending rules which come into effect on the 1st October.
 
Senior industry figures taking part are :-
Alan Cleary – Managing Director at Precise Mortgages
Keith Street – Head of Kensington Mortgages
Andrew Ferguson – Head of BTL Lending at Axis Bank
Adrian Maloney – Sales Director at One Savings Bank
Hans Geberbauer – CEO at Foundation Home Loans
 
Lenders which have already confirmed participation include Affirmative, Axis Bank, Bluestone, Buckinghamshire BS, Castle Trust, Dudley BS, Foundation Home Loans, Harpenden BS, Kensington, Kent Reliance, Landbay, Pepper, Precise Mortgages, The Family BS, The Mortgage Lender, Together, Shawbrook Bank, Magellan Home Loans and Vida Home Loans.
 
After lunch, delegates can then take part in the afternoon’s activities which include golf, sailing on a rib in the Solent, geese herding (introduced last year and universally requested again this year!) and use of the Hilton’s spa and leisure facilities. For the golfers, Complete FS is offering the chance to win a new car valued at £20000 for a “hole in one” on the Par 3 13th hole at the brand new Boundary Lakes course next to the Ageas Bowl.
 
Tony Salentino commented, “Our Expo has always been about giving advisers ‘up close’ access to the top intermediary facing specialist lending stars and the best of current thinking on industry topics which affect brokers and their clients.
 
We have assembled a blockbuster group of lenders some of the biggest A listers in the industry are taking part in our  Lender Panel Debate. The Complete FS Expo keeps on growing in stature because we understand what advisers want to listen to and talk about.
 
Yet the Expo is intimate enough to get up close and personal with the industry’s movers and shakers and after the serious business, there is time to enjoy the great leisure activities we have laid on.
