Roma Finance, the (Manchester based) specialist lender known for its tailored property finance solutions, has secured a new £100 million funding line with NatWest. The facility will enable Roma to significantly scale its loan book, increasing its total lending capacity to £400 million, and reinforcing its position in the bridging and buy-to-let markets.
As well as supporting its ambitious growth plans for 2025, the deal also enhances Roma’s ability to meet the evolving needs of brokers and property investors, providing flexible and competitive finance options in a fast-moving industry.
Scott Marshall, Managing Director of Roma Finance, said: “This additional funding from NatWest marks a pivotal moment for Roma Finance, our customers and broker partners. As the demand for specialist finance continues to increase, this facility equips us with the resources to support more customers in achieving their property goals. Our relationship with NatWest is instrumental in our growth strategy, and we are excited to expand our offering in the bridging and buy-to-let sectors.”
George Ross, Managing Director and Head of Speciality Finance at NatWest, commented: “We have been watching Roma’s impressive growth over the past few years and we are delighted to provide the team with this new funding line, enabling them to continue to scale their operations and meet the increasing demand from brokers and property investors. Our collaboration with Roma Finance is built on the shared values of supporting customers to thrive through customer-focused lending and innovation.”
This funding milestone highlights Roma Finance’s dedication to expanding its lending capabilities and strengthening its service to intermediaries and property professionals nationwide.
Roma has recently executed a strategic product review and innovative reorganisation of its offering, which has been streamlined into three clear product ranges: FLOW | GROW | PRO. RomaFLOW represents Roma’s trusted bridging finance products, while RomaGROW combines the company’s popular development finance options under one name. RomaPRO, the newest addition launched in January, offers a comprehensive solution for both development and long-term buy-to-let financing. The collective product suite now makes end-to-end lending on property investment projects more accessible and achievable for individuals looking to create wealth through property.
