“In the world of property development and investment, advisers will be acutely aware that many clients require quick, short-term finance in order to purchase, buy at auction or refurbish. Therefore, it’s vitally important we work with quality bridging loan lenders and it’s the reason why we’ve added MT Finance to our lending panel today. We fully anticipate that 2020 will be a busy year for property investors and developers and we want to ensure Paradigm member firms have access to the best products available for them in the bridging sector.
