Recognise Bank expands commercial mortgage range with 5-year fixed product
The new product is available for commercial investment and owner-occupied properties, with loans from £250,000 to £3m up to 70% loan-to-value (LTV).

The new product is available for commercial investment and owner-occupied properties, with loans from £250,000 to £3m up to 70% loan-to-value (LTV).

Luke Watson said: “We can now support up to 80% LTV on the right residential bridging opportunities, providing greater leverage and helping clients access more of the capital they need."

The transaction was led by Luke Beirne, senior lending manager at Recognise Bank.

The loan book grew by 51.1% during the year to £461.9m and deposits increased by 18.8% to £575.5m.

The deal was led by senior lending manager Luke Beirne, supported by the wider lending and operations team.

Sawyer said: “I’m incredibly excited to be joining Simon and the board at Recognise Bank at such a pivotal time for the Bank."

The owners of the two care homes required a short-term facility to repay existing borrowings while raising a small amount of additional equity to support ongoing upgrades to the assets.

The bank said the new office brings together all bridging and term lending origination operations, alongside loan servicing functions under one roof.

The finance facility was structured over an 18-month term at 67% loan-to-value (LTV) on a serviced basis.

The four-storey Victorian building was previously used as office accommodation alongside a 30-bed hostel and associated parking.

Recognise Bank has provided a £2.665m bridging facility to refinance a Manchester site with planning permission for 66 homes, supporting a developer's next phase of investment activity.

Recognise Bank has launched a new brand positioning focused on delivering faster and clearer lending decisions for brokers and SME borrowers.
