Loans Warehouse celebrates record-breaking start to 2026 as enquiry volumes, quotes and completions hit post-pandemic highs

02 February 2026

Loans Warehouse has kicked off 2026 with its strongest start to the year since the pandemic, setting new post-Covid records across enquiries received, secured loan quotes issued, and monthly completions.

Driven by continued growth from its price comparison, intermediary and lead generation partners, the business recorded its highest monthly volume of enquiries received since Covid, alongside a new record for the number of enquiries placed and quoted to clients, reflecting strong consumer demand and increasing broker engagement across the secured lending market.

The business also confirmed that it completed more loans in a single month than at any point since the pandemic, reinforcing its position as one of the most active and trusted names in second charge lending.

The record performance comes as Loans Warehouse celebrates its 20th year in business, marking two decades as one of the longest-serving and most established brands in the second charge lending sector.

This performance follows Loans Warehouse’s announcement in November of 11 new recruits joining the business, with further growth planned in February as an additional 5 new team members are set to start.

Recruitment remains ongoing across both the secured loan, bridging and relationship teams, as the business continues to invest in people, service capacity and long-term growth plans through 2026.

Alongside its investment in people, Loans Warehouse has reflected how the continued adoption of automation across the industry is helping brokers deliver better outcomes for both introducers and customers.

Matt Tristram, Co-Founder of Loans Warehouse, said:

“I couldn’t be prouder of the way the team has come back from the Christmas break and hit the ground running. We’ve delivered a record month by any post-pandemic measure — from enquiries received through our partners, to the number of clients we’ve quoted and placed, right through to completions.

New starters and experienced team members alike gave 110% throughout the month, and what’s most exciting is that the momentum hasn’t slowed. February is already shaping up to be more of the same, and we’re continuing to recruit because our ambitions for both secured and bridging in 2026 are bigger than ever.”

Loans Warehouse expects this momentum to continue as it builds on partner performance, strengthens operational capacity and expands its teams to support growing volumes across both secured and bridging markets.
