Hodge is joining the Finance Intermediary and Broker Association (FIBA) as its new lending partner.
The long-term commercial lending funder joins the trade association with more than 30 years of experience supporting experienced property developers and investors to achieve their goals.
Hodge offers traditional development finance solutions, stretch senior, acquisition and light refurbishment bridging finance and build to rent options, together with longer term investment finance across multiple asset classes, spanning residential, commercial and mixed-use properties.
Gareth Davies (pictured), head of business development for commercial lending at Hodge, said: “Hodge has operated in the commercial lending space for more than 30 years and has built a strong reputation for delivering bespoke funding solutions for brokers and clients alike.
“We’ve also seen the challenges facing developers and investors over the past few years and are really excited to be joining FIBA, building new relationships, continuing our strategy of growth and, most importantly, ensuring our clients continue to receive great outcomes in testing market conditions.
“We’re thoroughly looking forward to working closely with all our FIBA partners, making sure that everyone we work with continues to receive the highest quality service throughout the lifecycle of their funding requirements.”
FIBA exists to provide relevant training, guidance and assistance to its members in the intermediary and broker sector, ensuring they have access to a comprehensive network of lenders, detailed product knowledge, industry expert advice and dedicated compliance resources.
Martin Reynolds, executive chairman of FIBA, added: “I have a long-standing relationship with Hodge and its approach to support of all intermediaries, not just in the commercial finance arena, has demonstrated particular merit and indeed innovation.
“We look forward to working closely with the commercial lending team as they bed in as our most recent lender addition to panel and feel sure that their service provision will be attractive and engaging for our members.”
