What our Partners say
The firms we work alongside every day, on what it's like to partner with City Mortgage Solutions.
“I’ve been fortunate enough to work with the team at City Mortgage Solutions for nearly 20 years, in one firm or another, and currently they’re one of the leading firms in the SimplyBiz group. We regularly ask for their engagement in spearheading new ideas and new projects, and they are invaluable to us as we look to offer services to all our members and promote excellent working practices.”
Brian WillsHead of Corporate Accounts, SimplyBiz
“We started working with City in February this year, who are supporting our objective of offering all clients a better type of survey to negate the risk of home buying. We both share the same aim. I’ve given the full holistic advice to every customer of CMS, and it’s great to see how much progression we’re making.”
Gavin HollidayDirector, Your Surveying Partner
“I’ve known the directors and many of the brokers since we started working together 18 years ago. At Holden Smith, we work with many introducer firms, but undoubtedly, City Mortgage Solutions are one of the most professional and competent we work with today. We share the same goal of offering quality advice and ensuring the clients experience a great legal journey when referred from the excellent brokers at City.”
David BancroftDirector, Holden Smith, our recommended law firm
How we approach broker recruitment
Most brokers join us for the advice work and stay for the marketing. This is the engine that keeps your pipeline full, built, run and paid for by us.
Your own local page
A dedicated, search-optimised area page with your name on it, built, hosted and kept fresh by us, so local clients find you first.
Video & social content
We film and produce your introduction and ongoing social videos, then run them across the channels, content that builds your profile without you touching an edit suite.
Reviews & reputation
A managed review process (Google & TCF) that turns happy clients into local search ranking and social proof that works while you sleep.
A real marketing plan
A content calendar, campaigns and a team behind it, not a logo and a leaflet. You always know what's going out and when.
Brand & website
A recognised, professional brand and a website that does the heavy lifting, credibility that's hard to build alone as a sole trader.
A team beside you
Marketing, compliance and admin support so you're never doing it all alone, the network effect of a group, with the freedom of running your own book.
Commission & earnings
We offer up to 85% commission, so more of what you bring in stays with you.
Training & development
CeMAP support, mentoring, ongoing CPD and progression routes.
Technology & systems
We use 360 Lifecycle, Twenty7Tech, iPipeline, CI Expert, and more, so the day-to-day sourcing, CRM and compliance tools are already sorted for you.
Compliance & support
SimplyBiz help with this, providing the compliance umbrella so you're fully supported and free to focus on advising, not paperwork.
Flexibility & freedom
Self-employed model, work your own way, build your own book. We also pay your professional indemnity insurance, so that's one less cost for you to carry.
Mortgage Club
We're part of the SimplyBiz and Omni mortgage club network, giving you access to a wider lender panel, enhanced procuration fees and exclusive products alongside the compliance support above.
Offering every client the full package
This is everything we already help clients with day to day, so you can see the full range of areas open to you as a broker here. Some of our brokers tick off every single one for their clients.
