Blackfinch Property has surpassed £500m in total lending, marking a major milestone for the business and reflecting its support for a wide range of residential and commercial projects across the UK.
The achievement follows a period of steady, organic growth for the team, which continues to provide development finance, bridging loans, commercial term loans and buy-to-let portfolio lending nationwide.
Supporting projects from Devon to Glasgow, Blackfinch Property has built a diverse lending book across both residential and commercial property, earning a reputation for a practical, hands-on approach and strong working relationships with borrowers and brokers.
Recent transactions highlight the breadth of the team’s activity. These include a £4.9m development loan to support the delivery of 15 family homes on the outskirts of Glasgow and an £8.8m bridging loan secured against a new care home and assisted living facility in Blackburn, following the successful development of the project which Blackfinch had also funded. There is also a £2.1m development loan in Devon to support a scheme including a convenience store, a future drive-thru café, an electric vehicle charging park and business units, amongst many other examples.
David Higson, Head of Property at Blackfinch Property, said: “Reaching £500m in total lending is an important milestone for the team. It reflects years of consistent, disciplined growth and the trust that borrowers and brokers continue to place in us.
“We have reached this point by focusing on building lasting relationships. We have found that borrowers and brokers appreciate a personalised service which has led to strong repeat business. With a growing loan book this can best be achieved through scalable processes and empowering the team to manage relationships with a degree of autonomy and a flexible approach.
“As we look ahead, our focus remains the same. We want to keep backing good projects, support experienced borrowers across the UK and build long-term relationships based on service, reliability and delivery.”
Blackfinch Property’s model combines dedicated deal teams with in-house legal support, helping transactions progress efficiently while giving borrowers direct access to experienced decision-makers.
With lending activity spanning residential, healthcare, industrial, retail, student and leisure assets across the UK, the £500m milestone underlines the scale Blackfinch Property has reached and its intention to continue growing in a measured way, without losing the close working relationships that have helped define the business to date.
