  • Funding 365 and Clifton Private Finance deliver £4m development exit bridge

    Funding 365 and Clifton Private Finance deliver £4m development exit bridge Funding 365 completed a 75% loan-to-value (LTV) bridging loan with an interest rate of 0.79% per month, to provide a developer borrower with extra time to market and sell their properties. Introduced by Clifton Private Finance, the £4m loan was secured against six new-build houses in North London for a term of 12 months. The loan was under Funding 365’s residential bridge product which offers solutions of up to £5m-plus on properties across England and Wales with no admin fees, exit fees or early repayment charges (ERCs). Katie Spitz (pictured), senior underwriter at Funding 365, said: “This was a classic development exit proposition which allowed us to deliver a 75% LTV loan at a highly competitive rate of 0.79% per month. “The experience of working with Fergus and the Clifton Private Finance team was excellent, once again. “They’re always available to smooth the path for their clients and their communication is first class.” Fergus Allen, head of bridging at Clifton Private Finance, added: “Working with Katie and the team at Funding 365 is always a pleasure and this loan was a great example of the flexibility and exceptional service they offer. “Funding 365 took a view where it was required and reduced their pricing to fend off competition. “The client and I were delighted with their can-do attitude, quick responses and overall enthusiasm to lend. “We’ve had a lot of success with Funding 365 this year and look forward to building on that relationship into 2025.”

  • Refurbishment of 3 Storey House in Nottingham | Light Refurbishment | Funding 365

    £520,000 Gross 30% LTV | 55% LTGDV 1.03% PM The brief Our solution Underwriter quote The complex requirements of this case demanded close correspondence between our team, the broker and the developers. Upon review of the extent of works, we designed a 15 month facility to provide the borrower ample time to finish the project and apply for a long term loan, with 100% cost of works funded in tranches. The borrower required funds to convert their 2 storey commercial unit into a block of 3 apartments with a commercial unit below. With planning to convert the second storey offices into a residential unit and add an additional floor above, they require 100% cost of works funded in tranches. "The complexity of the project made for an interesting process for all involved. This case is a great example of the flexibility of our product suite."

    The brief Our solution Underwriter quote Our team moved quickly to assess the liquidity of the asset and underwrite a bespoke solution. As the commercial aspect accounted for less than 30% of the property value, we managed to deliver a solution at our headline rate of 0.74% per month for 12 months. Our speedy turnaround ensured that the client avoided costly extension charges. The client had an outstanding debt over a newly constructed block of flats in Hull, with a vacant commercial unit below. The borrower has finished works and sold 7 flats. However, with the end of their loan term looming, the borrower needed to secure additional time to market and sell the remaining properties. "We relish opportunities to support ambitious property developers who are servicing the high demand for new housing. In this case, we were able to offer our headline rate and a loan term that fit the borrower's needs perfectly. Credit to the solicitors for their swift work in getting the case across the line."

  • Funding 365 enters BTL market with specialist three- and five-year fixes

    Funding 365 enters BTL market with specialist three- and five-year fixes Funding 365 has today (11th July) unveiled its new specialist three- and five-year BTL options for England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The products offer loans from £100,000 to £5m (maximum £3m for lending in Northern Ireland) for purchases, remortgages or capital raise, with fixed rates starting from 7.49% per annum with a 2% arrangement fee. They cater for a broad spectrum of residential properties, including social housing, HMOs, MUFBs, student accommodation and holiday lets — semi-commercial properties are also considered where commercial is less than 30% of the total value. The BTL options are available for a range of borrowers, with expats, foreign nationals with a UK credit footprint, offshore companies and first-time buyers all considered on a case-by-case basis. “As you would expect from Funding 365, we’ve created buy to let products that are simple, straightforward and with clear benefits,” said Laura Kendall, marketing director at Funding 365 (pictured above). “Moreover, they will be delivered by the same team that won Service Excellence at the recent B&C Awards, so our clients can be sure of a personal experience and no delays.” Mike Strange, director at Funding 365, added: “We always look to find the best solutions for our borrowers, so we’ve delivered occasional bespoke three- and five-year loans over the years. “With a marked increase in demand recently, it made sense for us to solidify our offerings and make them available to the whole of the market. “We look forward to delivering funding for even more property professionals.”

  • The new bridging lender survival guide

    The new bridging lender survival guide As Funding 365 is now approaching its first anniversary it seems an appropriate time to reflect upon the various things that we’ve learnt over the past year. Clearly we have learnt a lot... for example, the world remains big enough for airplanes to vanish without trace; Alex Ferguson is (probably literally) worth his weight in gold; the US Government has access to everything we say and write (although, after watching Enemy of the State in 1998, we already knew that). Whilst all of these things are interesting, our first year in the bridging sector has also taught us some invaluable business lessons. As we are a generous lot at Funding 365, we thought we would put these down to share with other new entrants to the bridging sector (or to any incumbents who may have found themselves suffering from the growing pains that are inevitable when part of a rapidly growing sector). Below is the resulting Funding 365 survival guide for new bridging lenders. 1. Know your competitive strength When making your first steps into the bridging market it’s hard to know exactly what your strengths and weaknesses are compared to the incumbent lenders. In the early days of Funding 365 we had several demoralising conversations with brokers (who shall remain nameless) where they said, “we have 100 lenders, we use about 5 - I don’t think we need another lender”. Needless to say, within six months these same brokers were banging down our door because in actual fact they did need another lender; they needed one who offered super fast execution. It became clear to us from that point forward that the Funding 365 set up (by luck more than by design, quite honestly) allowed us to offer significantly faster execution than that offered by other lenders in the market. This was our competitive advantage and it has allowed us to capture a decent share of the market in our first year. Your organisation may have a competitive advantage in being more aggressive on HMOs, or more attracted to properties in Scotland / Northern Ireland / ex-London & South East, or perhaps you’re happier with commercial property than other lenders. You need to find out what your competitive advantage could be, focus on it, nurture it and market it. 2. Understand your funding constraints and originate accordingly Whilst there are a handful of banks operating in the bridging space, bridging lenders are predominantly privately-funded organisations. Some organisations are funded by a few private individuals, some by accessing family offices and small investment funds and some have been bought out and funded by private equity sponsors. Understanding your funding constraints is the single most important thing that any financial institution should worry about. It’s not just about the quantum of potential funding that you have access to; it’s the quality of the funding and its flexibility that really matters. For example, why did Northern Rock, Bradford & Bingley and HBOS all get into trouble? If your answer is, “they were writing bad mortgages”, you would be wrong, massively wrong (and almost seven years after the start of the crisis, even broadsheet papers (excluding the FT) are still feeding the populace this nonsense). Northern Rock et al. got into trouble because they did not have appropriate focus on their funding sources versus the liabilities they were incurring. To be more specific, they had an over-reliance on the securitisation and covered bond market which, when these markets closed (due to losses arising on US sub-prime mortgage bonds), left them unable to fund their existing commitments to borrowers. The proof that the mortgage quality was pretty good is contained in the fact that the Northern Rock ‘bad bank’ has been profitable ever since it was created (which confounded many journalists who bought into the myth of poor asset quality). In the bridging sector, things are (thankfully) somewhat more straightforward. You need to understand what your funders are happy for you to originate, where they will be flexible and where they will not, and the timescales that you will have to operate under to receive funding. Since Funding 365’s funding is 100% controlled by its management team (who are also the credit committee), we can agree amongst ourselves whether we like a loan or not and therefore make decisions instantly (well, sometimes after a hot cup of coffee and a hotter debate). We do not need to strictly adhere to a matrix of LTVs or live by mantras such as, “we will never bridge a bridge”. Ideally, you should only attempt to originate loans that you know your funders will accept without debate. If your funders delay approval of a particular loan or (as happens all too frequently) refuse to fund it at the last minute, this will sound a death knell for your relationship with the respective introducer and the borrower. Given that this is a small industry, word travels quickly and this failure will soon be known by everyone in the market. 3. Work with brokers who can be a long term partner Our first year of business taught us that there are highly reputable and professional brokers / introducers / packagers (in Funding 365 we call them our ‘Broker Partners’) and those who are purely out for a fast buck and will not be a reliable long term business partner. I like the saying, “you can shear a sheep many times but skin it only once”, which is a mantra that some brokers would do well to learn and live by. How do you develop a relationship with a broker partner? Like finding a wife / girlfriend, I am sure there are many ways to do this. You could throw money at the problem (Russian style) by paying the highest proc fees in the market; you could wine, dine and charm your targets (French style); or you could just market your strengths and try to find a broker who is looking for a lender with this particular strength (let’s call this the match.com approach). Whilst I don’t believe there are any shortcuts to achieving this particular objective, it is a fundamental one. If you don’t garner strong broker partner relationships, you risk finding yourself used as a stalking horse and only able to execute deals that other lenders don’t want to touch. 4. Ensure execution is stellar Having targeted your strengths, lined up your funding and found your broker partners, it’s time to do what you said you could do. For example, if you said that you could operate quickly, ensure that you are able to do so (and not just once or twice; every time). Bridge lending is an industry where high volumes of proposals are received and loans need to be completed efficiently. To ensure that you can execute efficiently you need to have a solid, scalable IT system as well as high quality, trustworthy staff. If you’re a new lender, it’s important therefore to put in the investment into your systems and people upfront - the industry moves too rapidly for you to play catch-up. Ultimately, efficient execution requires focus, dedication, good systems and quality people. If you have all of this in place you should be in a position to back up your words with action. As our friends at Brightstar Financial said to us recently, “it’s nice to see a lender who can walk the walk, not just talk the talk”. Efficient execution builds the bonds of trust and the foundations for repeat business. So, the above, in a nutshell, outlines the four key areas that we believe a new bridge lender needs to get right to survive in this competitive market. The final (unwritten) rule is to try to have a bit of fun - there are plenty of characters in the industry and a lot of interesting stories. Has anyone heard about the lender who tried to repossess a house, only to find that the borrower lived with his pet horse? That’s a story for another time!

  • Funding 365 delivers £1.1million auction finance at 0.59pcm

    Funding 365 delivers £1.1million auction finance at 0.59pcm Funding 365 has completed yet another unregulated bridging loan at 0.59% per month, this time to enable a borrower to complete their auction purchase of a house in North London. The townhouse property was in good condition and tenanted, so Funding 365 was able to provide the fully-serviced 9 month loan at 60% LTV. The team at Funding 365 worked closely with the introducing broker, SPF Private Clients, to ensure that the client’s auction deadline was met with time to spare. Funding 365 does not charge exit fees or ERCs on any of its bridging loans. All products, rates and fees can be viewed at www.funding-365.com/products Funding 365 Senior Underwriter, Jonathan Brooks, comments, “We only advertise interest rates that we’re happy to write, so it’s very satisfying to be able to provide yet another borrower with our 0.59% per month interest rate. Thanks to Laura and Nancy at SPF Private Clients for introducing the deal and ensuring a smooth process.” Laura Toke, Broker at SPF Private Clients, adds, “I approached Funding 365 for this auction purchase as the client needed a loan of £1.1million and they were able to offer a really competitive rate of 0.59% per month. They only had a few weeks before the contractual completion date and I was really impressed at how quick and professional the team were to get the deal over the line within the auction timeframes. Funding 365 are a pleasure to deal with and I look forward to working with them in the future.”
