Crocker-Wilton joins Black Book Finance

By Bridging Loan Directory 11th September 2023

Luke Crocker-Wilton has joined Black Book Finance, to head up its specialist BTL packaging team.

Crocker-Wilton spent the last 5 years as a Senior Broker at TBMC, providing packaging services to introducers seeking assistance with all types of BTL, HMO, MUB & Holiday Let requirements.

He will now be providing the same services for the introducers and clients of Black Book Finance.

Black Book Finance is a specialist packager and broker firm, launched by industry veteran Michael Clapper in 2016, that has since established a reputation for its personalised service delivery for introducers and clients, particularly in the bridging, commercial and development finance sectors.

CEO at Black Book Finance, Michael Clapper, said:

“Having worked with Luke on several complex BTL transactions whilst he was at TBMC, I had always been impressed by his vast knowledge of the sector and his ability to find workable solutions to even the most complex of scenarios.

The moment I heard of the decision to close TBMC, I offered Luke a role and I am delighted that he chose to accept.

It’s a tough BTL market now for sure, but tough markets require the very best advisory. Luke’s appointment has further strengthened our packaging proposition for any residential investment requirement, and I am certain that our clients and introducers – both existing and new – will be delighted with this significant service enhancement.”

Crocker-Wilton said:

“Whilst at TBMC, my dealings with the team at Black Book stood out as a genuine pleasure, given their highly pro-active approach to cases.

Michael and his team have a superb reputation with both brokers and lenders, and I was delighted to be asked to join them.

Black Book have allowed me the opportunity to continue delivering the specialist service I am so passionate about for introducers and clients.”
