Precise Mortgages widens scope for heavy refurbishment cases

Precise Mortgages, a specialist lender within the OSB Group, has expanded its offerings for heavy refurbishment projects, alongside introducing a dedicated bridging team.

The lender’s enhanced tier 2 bridging proposition now accommodates more extensive projects, including the conversion of commercial properties into residential spaces of up to four units, and the transformation of residential properties into houses in multiple occupation (HMOs) with as many as 10 lettable rooms.

In addition to broadening its project scope, Precise Mortgages has established a dedicated bridging sales team, tasked with assisting brokers with their initial enquiries and providing ongoing support throughout the entire process, from the initial stages through to completion and beyond, including post-offer services.

“I am delighted to be announcing our dedicated bridging team alongside the expansion in our heavy refurbishment offering in Precise Mortgages,” stated Marc Callaghan (pictured), head of specialist finance at the OSB Group. “Our expert team are well-versed in bridging and the potential complexities that can appear with this type of finance and will be on hand to support brokers and customers throughout their bridging journey.

“With popularity increasing in co-living arrangements, now is the ideal time for us to be widening our criteria for heavy refurbishment cases in Precise Mortgages, to help brokers support their customers with varied financing options. The co-living sector has almost trebled since 2019 and there are now 25,021 units across the UK classed as co-living.”
