Masthaven Finance appointed to NACFB

Masthaven Finance has been appointed as a patron of the National Association of Commercial Finance Brokers (NACFB).

The firm said the move would mark a “significant milestone” in its return to the market as a specialist lender.

Following its transition away from banking, Masthaven now offers bridging, commercial, and development finance products designed to meet the need of the property and business finance sectors.

Sales director – bridging and development at Masthaven, Jim Baker, commented: “We are delighted to be joining the NACFB community no longer as a bank, but as a true specialist property finance lender.

“Masthaven has always been big on building trusted relationships and delivering on our promises and we look forward to once again supporting NACFB members by helping their clients secure funding with confidence, even in complex or time-sensitive situations.”

CEO at the NACFB, Jim Higginbotham, said: “Welcoming Masthaven back to the NACFB community is a feather in our cap. I’m certain our members will value Masthaven’s commitment to supporting not only the intermediary channel but commercial borrowers across the UK property market.”
