HTB expands specialist mortgages and bridging finance offering into Scotland

• HTB is now offering specialist mortgages and bridging loans in Scotland.
• Recent updates include Portfolio Edge and more flexible funding options.
• Jack Slade will be supporting Scottish brokers directly.

This move builds on a number of recent enhancements to our proposition, including the launch of Portfolio Edge, a dual-structured term and bridging facility designed for portfolio landlords. We’ve also introduced improved pricing for semi-commercial properties over £5 million, added more flexibility for heavy refurbishment funding, and raised our maximum customer exposure limit to £35 million.

To support this expansion, Jack Slade, our Business Development Executive with extensive experience in the region, will be working closely with brokers based in Scotland, alongside the rest of our UK sales team.

Jack Slade, Business Development Executive, Specialist Mortgages at HTB commented:

I’m genuinely proud to be part of this expansion. I’ve worked with brokers across Scotland for many years and understand the nuances they deal with when placing complex cases, particularly when it comes to portfolios or less straightforward properties.

This is a great opportunity to build closer relationships with brokers in the region and make HTB’s tailored support even more accessible.

And while I’ll be focused on Scotland, brokers across the UK can continue to speak to their usual HTB contact when placing deals on Scottish assets. We know what matters to brokers and their clients, and we are here to make those complex deals easier to place.

Andrea Glasgow, Sales Director for Specialist Mortgages and Bridging Finance at HTB, added:

Expanding our specialist mortgages offering into Scotland is a significant step and reflects our continued commitment to supporting brokers with complex deals, wherever they or their clients are based.

Whether it is a broker looking for a lender that understands the local market, or one placing a deal on a property in Scotland, our goal is the same. We want to provide the access, flexibility and clarity they need to deliver for their clients.

This expansion allows us to support brokers and landlords across the UK in placing deals in Scotland with confidence, backed by the same tailored approach they already expect from us.

It also means we can do more to meet the complexity of landlord portfolios and the specific demands of the market.

We’re looking forward to working more closely with brokers in Scotland and continuing to support complex cases with the same personalised approach we’re known for.
