In this issue of Bridging & Commercial Magazine, we dissect how loan performance has fared over the past 12 months; how better quality borrowers are contributing to this; and whether the emergence of new, inexperienced brokers in bridging could steer us off track. We also delve into whether the demand for UK staycations is expected to soar and its impact on the holiday let market. In addition, we have a plethora of interviews: Hampshire Trust Bank talks about lending on breweries, barbers and ‘hispter’ shops; Octopus Real Estate hits the £5bn lending milestone; and Jackson Cohen and Ashurst make some interesting observations about regulation and M&A. We also get an exclusive first glimpse at new bridging lender Tenn Capital's offering.
