How it works

From WhatsApp to first charge to drawdown.

A straight sequence. Indicative terms stay consistent: from 12% p.a., typically 50–70% LTV, first legal charge — property-backed, no income proof or income documents required. Underwriting order: methodology.

Process

Eight steps. No mystery.

Enquiry

WhatsApp with property, amount, and use case (bridging, SPA deadline, auction loan, or refinance). Income documents are not required for this path.

Asset screen

Title type, location, existing charges, and whether a first charge can be perfected.

Indicative quantum

Map amount against typically 50–70% LTV and from-12% pricing — labelled indicative until valuation.

Valuation & legal

Independent valuation and title due diligence drive the real number and conditions.

Letter of offer

Facility terms, tenor, fees, and security conditions in writing.

Redeem existing charge

If a bank or other charge sits first, it is discharged as part of completion — required for our first-charge standard.

Register first charge

Legal charge is registered so the funder ranks first against the property.

Drawdown

Funds release per the offer — to redemption, vendor, or your account as structured.

Security

What “first charge” means

A first charge is the highest-ranking legal security over the property. If the asset is sold or enforced, that charge is paid before later (second) charges.

We only arrange facilities that take first ranking. That is why refinance and bridging often require redeeming an existing bank charge on the same day as completion — so the new security is not stuck behind someone else.

Unsecured borrowing and second-charge products are outside this site’s product set.
