Company Description
We’re Together. For over 50 years, we’ve helped thousands of people, businesses, and professionals unlock their property ambitions with our common-sense approach to lending. That means we take the time to understand our customers and find a property finance solution that works for them. Our door is always open, so we can often help when other lenders can’t or won’t.
Our large product suite of mortgages and secured loans gives us the flexibility to help in a wide range of specialist lending scenarios, including residential mortgages, short-term finance, buy-to-let, auction finance, development funding, and commercial and semi-commercial mortgages and loans.
Based in Cheadle, Cheshire, our 800 colleagues use their expertise and industry knowledge to help our customers throughout the UK, backed by the power of a £7.6 billion loan book.
