Roma Finance reduces rates and increases LTVs across the range

13 October 2020

Roma Finance, the bridging, buy-to-let and development finance lender, has cut rates and increased LTVs and loan amounts across its product range.

The standard rate for residential investment property bridging has been reduced to 0.65% per month with no exit fee and a maximum LTV of 70%. Loan terms are 3 to 12 months.

Refurbishment rates have also been cut, now starting at 0.85% with an LTV up to 70%.

The recently introduced development finance product now has rates available from 1.00% per month for sites of up to 6 units, with a maximum term of 18 months. The commercial bridging solution, launched at the same time, is now available with rates from 1.10% and an increased LTV of 60%.

Maximum loans sizes have been increased to £3 million and exit fees have been removed from the majority of the range.

Roma Finance provides bridging and development finance for a variety of properties such as buying at auction, buy to lets, HMOs, semi-commercial and commercial property as well as ground-up developments. In addition, it offers 5-year buy-to-let and holiday let mortgages for purchasing investment property or exiting a bridging loan.
