MT Finance has announced that it has launched a commercial mortgage business, supported by a £2.5bn forward flow facility from J.P. Morgan. The lender said the move is aimed at establishing a significant presence in the commercial real estate lending sector.
The new business line builds on MT Finance’s existing position in the specialist finance market and will offer a range of competitively priced commercial real estate products. The firm said its focus on speed, flexibility and service will remain a defining feature, consistent with its approach in the bridging and buy-to-let sectors.
“The launch of our commercial mortgage business marks an exciting new chapter in MT Finance’s growth journey," comments Marylen Edwards (pictured), director of mortgages at MT Finance, "We've identified a clear opportunity, in an underserviced sector, where demand remains strong. We recognise the vital role flexible financing plays in the success of this businesses.
"By launching now, we are strengthening our commitment to the introducer and borrower community. We believe our established reputation for speed, flexibility, and understanding of the property sector will be a significant asset to our commercial clients.”
Gareth Lewis, deputy CEO at MT Finance, added, “We have been gearing up for this moment for a while. With the continued support of J.P. Morgan, we are perfectly positioned to take advantage of the very clear opportunity in the commercial real estate market and to provide much needed flexible funding options to the market. We look forward to working closely with our existing partners and new ones in the coming weeks as we roll out this exciting new business.”
MT Finance said the expansion reflects its long-term strategy to respond to continued demand in commercial lending, particularly among borrowers seeking responsive, non-bank finance providers.
