In today’s episode I explain the concept of Bridge to Let, a new innovative lending product that came to the market last year.

I’ve been asked a lot by those in my property community, as well as my clients, about bridge to let over the past few months, so I wanted to dive into what it is, what it can be used for, and who it’s made for.

Since the outbreak of coronavirus probably the hottest topic in the property world has been that of surveys and valuations. So today I wanted to address this with Commercial Director of the VAS panel, Daniel Owen-Parr.

Daniel is uniquely positioned as not only has he spent a large proportion of his career working with lenders, but as the commercial director at VAS, he overseas 172 surveyors throughout the UK, so has great insight into that sector of the market, the trails they face, but also the opportunities that have arisen to strengthen.

Today I’m talking with Mark Posniak, MD at Octane Capital, the only lender boasting to have no products (they do lend... but everything in bespoke).

Mark has been in the short term lending space in the UK for over 13 years, and as such, as seen his fair share of ups and downs. Today we discuss the state of play in market, what lenders can do to keep the market moving, how social distancing is effecting lending transactions, and why there is every reason to be positive!

Today I’m joined by Gareth Lewis, commercial director at bridging lender MT Finance. Gareth has been in the game a great many years, coming through the ranks at Precise on their short term lending team, and then taking up the position at MT Finance last year.

With the coronavirus still the hot topic of conversation I wanted to get Gareth’s views on how lenders were coping, the use of technology and remote access (Gareth joined me from his back garden), how criteria, loan to value and product changes were effecting the market, as well his views on valuations, and some predictions for the future.
