The enhancement gives brokers more flexibility on fast-moving or complex cases, enabling the lender to make quicker decisions on qualifying deals.
“This facility gives us more capacity and more confidence to support the types of deals brokers are bringing us,” said David Travers, director at ScotLend (pictured above).
“If a case doesn't need a full valuation, it shouldn't be delayed by one.
“This change is about keeping things practical and focused on getting deals done.”
The partnership marks Shawbrook’s first facility with a lender founded and based in Scotland.
The bridging lender said the move builds on its broker-first approach, offering clear terms, fast answers, and properly assessed deals.
“We’re still the same team with the same straight-talking style. We’ve just got more room to say yes,” added David.
