Recent updates.

From Friday 17th October 2025, we’re decreasing the amount of a semi-commercial property’s floor space that must be allocated for residential purposes from 50% to 40%.

This change to the definition means that more properties will qualify for our semi-commercial mortgages and loans allowing you to place more cases and support more clients.

From Friday 17th October 2025, any new applications and re-quotes for cases in My Broker Venue can benefit from these changes. If a case is locked in My Broker Venue that you would like unlocking, please contact our underwriting team on 0161 933 7042.

We listened to your feedback, and we’re pleased to extend our dual representation proposition to cover properties in Scotland.

From 17th October 2025, dual representation will be available for unregulated loans up to £500k, secured against residential property. This change will help speed up completions and aims to reduce legal costs for your clients.

Our internal legal team will oversee the process from start to finish, including all necessary title checks. We’ll charge £750 or 0.3% of the net loan (whichever is the higher amount) to cover our costs. This fee is separate to the solicitor’s legal costs.

Dual representation is already available in England and Wales, and this extension ensures a consistent legal process across Great Britain. We’re working with a panel of approved Scottish solicitors who understand how we work, making the process smoother and more reliable.

We’re making it easier for you to support the business ambitions of Brits living abroad and non-UK nationals by removing the rate loading previously added to their Buy to Let, Commercial Term and Semi-Commercial Term rates.

That means that all of your clients will benefit from the same rates, whether they’re overseas or living here.

From Wednesday 8th October 2025, the following non-UK rate load will be removed on any new cases submitted in MyBrokerVenue:

From Friday 26th September 2025, the Lender’s Arrangement Fee for Regulated First Charge and Second Charge products will increase from £1,495 to £1,995.

There is no change to the Lender’s Arrangement Fee for Regulated Bridging and Consumer Buy to Let products.

The new Lender’s Arrangement Fee will apply to any applications that are quoted or re-quoted in My Broker Venue from Friday 26th September 2025.

Any applications currently in progress will need to be submitted by Friday 10th October 2025 to avoid the Lender’s Arrangement Fee increase, and these cases have until Friday 24th October 2025 to progress to offer. Offers will be honored for 90 days.

From Friday 26th September 2025, we’re withdrawing our Regulated Second Charge Smaller Loan product from sale.

Great news! In response to the latest Bank of England base rate cut and recent market changes, we’re excited to announce that, from Friday 19th September 2025, we’re reducing the rates on some of our personal and commercial finance products - some by as much as 0.25%.

Here’s a run-down of the changes:

From Friday 19th September 2025, any new quotes created and re-quotes for cases in My Broker Venue can benefit from these changes. If a case is locked in My Broker Venue that you would like unlocking, please contact our underwriting team on 0161 933 7042.

As part of our continued commitment to supporting our broker partners, we’re making changes and providing clarity to our lending criteria to provide a greater level of protection for your customers.

We’ve also enhanced our valuation policy to improve the application journey and your experience with Together.

The changes will come into effect as of Friday 25th July 2025.

Here’s what you need to know:

• We’ve increased the valuation validity period from 90 days to 120 days, as we know some applications can take longer when working with a customer’s solicitor.


• We now require a full valuation on new builds, and properties with less than 85 years remaining on a leasehold. This is due to the impact these can have on the value of the property.


• Our team can support you with enquiries for properties undergoing refurbishment and will let you know if a full valuation is needed or an automated valuation model (AVM) can still be accepted.


• For high-rise buildings with cladding, panels or balconies, to be comfortable with the safety of the building an EWS1 must now be less than 5 years old at the point of funding.
