Rates will start at 0.43% per month for the semi-exclusive product with a maximum LTV of 85%.
Up to 10% of the LTV can be used for light refurbishment, with the overall figure not exceeding 70% of gross development value.
Short-term loans are available from one to 24 months from £50,000 up to £15m, with no minimum interest or early repayment charges.
The loan can be used for scenarios including the quick purchase or refinance of a residential or commercial property, including those sold at auction, and refurbishing a property to then let or sell, which for example may require new kitchens or bathrooms.
