Partnership announcement
Cornerstone and RAN partnership enables estate agent diversification
RAN has partnered with Cornerstone Finance Group to help estate agents build their own mortgage and protection propositions without taking on FCA regulatory risk.
Better finance options for clients. A stronger service proposition for agents. A new recurring income opportunity for RAN members.
Relocation Agent Network has partnered with Cornerstone Finance Group to help estate agents build their own mortgage and protection propositions without taking on FCA regulatory risk.
The partnership has been created in response to the frustrations many agents face around mortgage placement and the limitations involved in securing the right finance solutions for clients.
This partnership gives members access to a market-leading range of lending options, creating better outcomes for clients while helping agents elevate their service with a fully branded in-house finance solution.
What the partnership gives agents
Full brand control
Members can develop an in-house finance proposition that sits naturally alongside their existing estate agency brand.
Recurring income
Agents can build a scalable, supported model that moves beyond one-off referral fees.
How the partnership works
1
Recruit advisers through a supported Appointed Representative model. This gives agents a route into financial services without building everything alone.
2
Retain control, branding and ownership. Members can build a fully branded in-house finance offering that complements their sales business.
3
Let Cornerstone handle the regulatory side. Cornerstone provides regulatory oversight, adviser recruitment, training and compliance, allowing agents to focus on sales while building a scalable regulated income stream.
Cornerstone perspective
“RAN members are already part of a premier network made up of high performing agents with the proven customer service and marketing skills to support the relocation market. This innovative partnership adds another dimension to the opportunities open to RAN estate agents. By working with Cornerstone they will be able to deliver a more joined-up property-to-finance customer experience and move from one-off referral fees to long-term, recurring income.”
Haydn Thomas, CEO of Cornerstone Finance Group
RAN perspective
“Having spent 12 years in estate agency myself, I have seen first-hand the frustrations around mortgage placement and limitations many agents face when trying to secure the right finance solutions for clients. That is exactly why I am excited that RAN is partnering with Cornerstone Finance Group.
This partnership gives our members access to a market-leading range of lending options, creating better outcomes for clients while empowering estate agents to elevate their service with a fully branded in-house finance solution. Not only does this strengthen the client journey, but it also opens the door to significant additional revenue growth for our members.
I would highly recommend having a conversation with them to understand the opportunity further.”
Adam Wilkins, Regional Director of RAN
