Property-backed lenders

LND Capital

A technology-enabled non-bank lender writing senior commercial real estate loans of £2m to £30m, funded by a £200m bank warehouse and a £450m forward-flow agreement.

What they do

LND lends its own book against UK commercial real estate across offices, industrial, retail, leisure and residential, on fixed or floating terms. Funding comes from a warehouse line of around £200m provided by a global bank in 2025 and an institutional forward-flow agreement of roughly £450m, with loan servicing outsourced to CBRE. An automated origination platform prices applications at scale, which the firm positions as its speed advantage over bank processes.

Where they fit in a lower-mid-market raise

The £2m to £30m range covers a £3–15m property requirement comfortably, and a lender with committed institutional funding behind it can commit with certainty rather than subject to a raise. For a borrower whose main frustration with banks is time to answer, an automated pricing platform with a human credit team behind it is a meaningfully different experience.

Where they are not the fit

Lending is limited to UK commercial real estate on a loan-to-value basis, so a trading company borrowing against earnings has no route here. Pricing is not published and no service level is stated, so both need establishing directly. Be careful with entity identity: a similarly-named company at Companies House is unrelated.

The desks that lend
