Together cuts bridging rates and raises max loan size
Specialist lender Together has made several changes to its bridging range, including lower rates, increased max loan size, and a faster application time.
With the new simplified process, intermediaries will be able to generate a quote in as little as sixty seconds, and receive an offer in two minutes, using the lender’s online portal, My Broker Venue. There will also be a dedicated commercial bridging web page, with improved and streamlined processes.
Rates have also been reduced, with semi-commercial and commercial rates starting from 0.95% and 1% per month respectively. Residential rates will start from 0.65% and refinance rates will start from 0.75%.
Bridging products will now be tiered by loan purpose, amount and loan-to-value, and for auction property purchases there will be no lender’s legal fees and a free valuation scheme available on loans up to £500,000.
In addition, Together has increased the maximum loan size on its regulated bridging products, taking it from £1m to £2.5m for all plans, up to a maximum loan-to-value of 50%.
Marc Goldberg, commercial CEO at Together, said:
“Following feedback from our broker partners, we’ve taken steps to enhance both our products and our processes in relation to our bridging finance offering. We’re confident that the new streamlined process, combined with our low rates, will help us to assist brokers with even more bridging applications and to deliver the short-term finance customers are looking for.”
