Shawbrook has expanded its newly formed structured real estate team with the appointment of three new hires, designed to further support property investors who require commercial and buy-to-let loans over £5m and bridging loans over £2.5m.

The new hires include senior relationship managers Karan Doshi and Tirath Singh, both with over 13 years’ experience in the property finance industry.
