In March 2025, Roma was approached to support the auction purchase of a three-bedroom detached home in the village of Rothersthorpe, located just 15 minutes from Northampton town centre.

Auction acquisitions demand both speed and precision, and in this instance, the borrower required funds within a tight two-week timeframe. Thanks to RomaFLOW, funding was completed in just seven days, allowing the borrower to secure the property on time at the best possible price point.

The borrower, a seasoned portfolio landlord, came to Roma after another lender declined the case. The time scales highlight Roma’s responsiveness and ability to adapt to borrower needs. The landlord plans to carry out light refurbishments before renting the property out, adding it to their portfolio. The anticipated renovations are projected to add £115,000 in value, offering both long-term rental income and capital growth.

Daniel Hill, Senior Key Accounts Manager at Roma, who played a key role in delivering this result, commented. “This case is a perfect example of how speed and service can be critical. RomaFLOW allowed us to get the deal over the line efficiently. The borrower’s experience and proactive communication made the process smooth and collaborative.”
