PROPERTY FINANCE SPECIALISTS INTRODUCE NEW BRANDS AS EXPANSION CONTINUES
A property finance business have split their offering into two specialist brands to further enhance their customer journey as expansion plans continue.
Signature Funding Solutions was set up in 2009 to predominantly support with residential house purchases, remortgages and advise for protection products.
The company soon went on to expand into buy-to-let and limited company mortgages, as well as unregulated bridging and HMO (houses with multiple occupancy) mortgages before further branching out and introducing additional commercial products such as development finance, commercial and semi commercial mortgages, agricultural land and social impact finance, supported living and care home finance.

The developments were all spurred on due to founder Dean Birks’ own impressive personal property investment journey, which has grown into a sizeable mixed use portfolio including student lets, commercial property and supported living housing.
In February this year the firm relocated to a larger premises at Lake View on Festival Way, Festival Park, and most recently introduced Signature Mortgages & Protection and Signature Specialist Finance – to further streamline services.
“Over the years we have seen increased demand for our specialist advice and lending facilities as well as to provide more support to investors,” says Dean.
“This added to all of our developments it was only natural to give our specialist arm of the business its own unique identity.
“This means that we now have specialist teams for our mortgages and protection as well as our specialist finance — which is a wonderful thing to be able to introduce – not just for our team – but for our customers too.”
Dean adds: “One of the most important aims of the business is to provide the best most suited support to others – not just to invest in property – but ultimately to help others to fulfil their dreams. Therefore, we invest in our own team to ensure they have the right knowledge and expertise to achieve and grow with us at the same time, which has led on to many of our team forging amazing relationships with customers.”
To compliment the firms growth and new brand identities, two new advisers have been welcomed to the 12-strong team and a further recruitment drive is is also underway as the company plans more growth in the near future.
Dean adds: “It’s vital we are able to provide a capable team in all of our specialist areas and we can only do this by having the right experience and knowledge. By separating the brands it allows us to have a broader range of financial products available to us, meaning that our specialist offering will expand and will allow our team to support our customers further.”
