Supporting more homeowners by widening our Regulated Bridging criteria

Since the launch of our Regulated Bridging product, the number of enquiries from brokers taking advantage of simpler, online applications has been great to see, and it has been a great step as a business to start supporting our first homeowner clients with the right funding, when they need it.
A couple of examples include:
- Supporting a couple after a high-street lender reneged on an offer following a criteria change. We were able to secure the property for them in a matter of weeks
- An investor wanted to capital raise against his own property before relocating to a new one
Building products that brokers want is integral to our business, and since launch we’ve continued to talk with brokers about how we can build regulated bridging out wider and support more of their deals.
This has already led to several criteria changes that mean more homeowners can benefit from simpler lending:
More scope for refurbishment
We opted for a cautious approach when we first launched the product, but the more we’ve connected with this part of the market the more we’ve seen homeowners crying out for funding that will support them with refurbishing their new properties.
Depending on the plans, we now support clients with building reg approvals and heavy refurbishment as part of their bridge.
Two charges
Your clients can benefit from increased flexibility with the charges we take, with us willing to take a first charge or second charges on either the property they are looking to purchase with the loan, or the property they currently occupy. This is decided by our underwriters based on the exit strategy, liquidity and LTV.
