Provantage Corporate Finance advised the management team of Mortgage Support Services Ltd (MSS), on its sale to South African based BetterHome Group

MSS has built a strong reputation in the UK mortgage intermediary market, combining its Stonebridge mortgage and protection network with specialist services and technology. The group has built trusted relationships across the industry, supporting businesses as they grow and deliver for their customers

BetterHome Group’s investment will support MSS’s existing growth strategy, with further investment in technology and services. The acquisition builds on BetterHome’s investment in the parent company of HL Partnership in 2024, strengthening its commitment to the UK market

Provantage Corporate Finance provided Management Advisory support to Rob Clifford, Chief Executive and the rest of the MSS management team

Rob Clifford, Chief Executive at Stonebridge commented, “Expertise matters, but attitude and commitment are what set firms apart. The Provantage team pulled out all the stops to make sure management had a voice. Whenever we needed them, whether late into the night or at weekends, someone was there straight away. We couldn’t have asked for better advisers” 

Andy Shepherd, at Provantage CF, said: “Great management teams deserve great partners, and in BetterHome, Rob and the MSS team have found exactly that”

Jamie Hope, added: “It was a privilege to play even a small part in helping Rob and the team deliver this landmark deal, and we look forward to what they build next”
