Semi-commercial is an asset class on the rise. We've been working with an increasing number of investors who are looking to diversify into semi-commercial, exploring these typically higher yield opportunities. Michael Street completed this loan facility with Hampshire Trust Bank at 75% LTV, fixed for five years.

It's hard to stand out in a busy, competitive market. Michael Street grabs his hi-vis and hits the road, explaining how Word On The Street really adds value in our role as a specialist property finance broker.

In a rapidly changing rate environment, we keep close tabs on the best available offerings for our clients. If switching will save them money, we're on it. Michael Street executed this product transfer to re-fix the borrower onto a 5-year term facility—saving them circa £15k over the life of the loan.

As specialist brokers, we live by the concept of adding value. When it comes to maximising your investment, you should consider it, too. Here, Stephen Burns lays out a couple of tips for those wanting to get the most out of their property assets.

Starting the week off with a nice completion for a first-time landlord and developer. The borrower needed to refinance the existing funder and raise some capital on this semi-commercial asset in St. Helens. Michael Street secured a 75%, five-year BTL loan to facilitate repayment of the existing debt and the release of equity for another property investment. We love working with first-time landlords, playing what we consider an important role in ensuring investors get the right information and funding support early on in their property careers.
