Somo Marks Fifth Year of Record-Breaking Black Friday Success

17 November 2025

43% uplift in deals and average borrower savings of £2,850 cement Somo’s status as the lender with the best Black Friday deal this year.

Somo’s much-anticipated Black Friday event, now in its fifth year, builds on last year’s record-breaking success, which saw a 43% uplift in deals compared to a typical month. The promotion gives brokers and borrowers the choice of either a free valuation or free legals, making it one of the most popular campaigns in the bridging calendar.

During last year’s campaign, Somo committed to paying out £318,214 in Borrower fees, with borrowers saving an average of £2,850 each. The event will almost certainly continue to be Somo’s busiest month of the year, driven by its popularity among brokers and borrowers alike.

Jade Keval, Sales Director at Somo, commented:

“Our Black Friday event has become something brokers look forward to all year and with good reason. We make it easy for them to secure a great deal with market leading rates and LTVs, backed by the fast, friendly and flexible service we’re known for. Why make bridging difficult?”

Somo’s second charge business now accounts for nearly 50% of its total lending, further strengthening its reputation as the Kings of Second Charge. Broker participation also continues to grow, with offers typically spiking by around 15% during the Black Friday period.

Now in its fifth consecutive year, the promotion’s enduring success demonstrates Somo’s commitment to keeping brokers at the heart of its business and making bridging simple through its 360Promise, looking at every deal from all angles to find a way to say yes.

Somo’s 2025 Black Friday event launches this week, giving brokers this year’s opportunity to benefit from exclusive savings, faster decisions, and unrivalled support.
