Where high street lenders see black and white, we've always used our expertise and manual underwriting capability to see the shades in between. In a market where changing lifestyles mean more people are falling outside the traditional mortgage criteria,it's an approach that can make a real difference to people who want to own a property.

It's what we call the Kensington Difference.
