In this issue of Bridging & Commercial Magazine, we explore why borrowers shop around when looking to secure specialist finance and how this can ultimately put consumers—and the industry’s reputation—at risk. In part two of our ‘Save our Surveyors’ series, we ask bridging lenders to respond to confetti claim allegations and the plight of smaller valuer firms. We also delve into why property developers are at risk of reducing their profits to rubble if they forge ahead with inexperienced solicitors. In addition, we have interviews with LDS, Offa, CrowdProperty, Sopra Banking Software and CG&CO.
