Access FS and Nomo agree Sharia deal image credit: shutterstock

Access FS has partnered with Nomo Bank to offer customers Sharia compliant property finance for UK rental and residential property. The products address a clear gap in the market for Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) based customers looking for holiday homes, buy-to-let properties and other residential opportunities.

There are very few options available to GCC based customers in search of property finance in the UK. This is especially so for those who want to adhere to Sharia law. Nomo’s financing means customers can buy a UK property using a product without compromising on their beliefs.
