July’s record figure covers a regional spread of loans. Included is the refinancing of a commercial property building to enable the borrowers to obtain planning permission for a 240-flat scheme in Surrey, a large commercial site with outline planning in Suffolk, and the purchase of a development site in the Midlands.
The firm has seen a strong first half of 2017 having provided more than £500 million of short term property loans last year, as it further expands its customer base among brokers, professional landlords and developers seeking finance for residential and commercial real estate assets.
Keith Aldridge, Managing Director at Amicus Property Finance, said:
"We are delighted to have achieved a record month of lending. We’ve seen tremendous growth over the last few years as our localised relationship-based approach resonates well with property professionals looking for specialist lending solutions in a buoyant short-term property market.
“We build our most successful loans on the bedrock of effective collaboration and strong relationships. Furthermore through our new Manchester office we have expanded nationally, cementing a strong on-the-ground base to fund local projects and service clients who are often overlooked by more mainstream lenders.”
