The offer is available across its entire product range and can be accessed by new and existing borrowers.

The incentive is designed to encourage customers to purchase more energy-efficient properties or undertake tasks such as improving insulation or upgrading windows and heat sources.

It is part of the lender’s initiative to help improve the environment and bring a greater focus on sustainability to the bridging finance community.

“MT Finance has always been a leader in terms of products, pricing and service, but we want to do more,” said James Anderson, operations director at MT Finance (pictured above).

“We want to lead the industry by becoming a force for change when it comes to improving the built environment.

•   Growth for small bridging lenders 'probably gets harder' as funding improves for larger providers
•   Landbay introduces green mortgage range
•   Foundation cuts rates across five-year BTL range and introduces new green remortgage product

“This initiative is very much the tip of the iceberg for us, with many more exciting plans to come. 

“We also want to encourage others in the industry to talk to us about what they are doing to care for the environment to see whether we can help.

“But, for now, at least we can start giving back on the projects that many of our borrowers are undertaking to create greener, more energy-efficient homes and commercial spaces.”

Rob Jupp, group CEO at The Brightstar Group and Sirius Property Finance, commented: “As a company, Brightstar has long supported positive environmental and social change. 

“We’ve been talking about what the industry can do to reduce our impact on the environment, fight climate change, and improve the lives of those around us for many years now. 

“It’s great to see MT Finance as one of the first lenders in the specialist market stepping up and joining us in spearheading new initiatives, and we believe this will be a huge success."
