“We’ve been lending in Scotland since July 2024 and have never needed a map to tell us whether a deal’s worth looking at. For us, it’s always been about whether the numbers work, the borrower knows what they’re doing, and the asset’s got legs. Whether it’s Dundee, Dalkeith or Dulwich, it’s all the same principle.”

“Rather than immediately restrict based simply on a location, we have the flexibility to judge the deal on its merits first and then look to provide a solution – whether that be a straight forward lend, conversion with works or a commercial enquiry.”

“At Inspired, we don’t hide behind a list of exclusions. If a deal works, we’ll find a way. If it doesn’t, we’ll tell you – straight. But we’ll always take a look.”

Owen Bentley (Sales Director, Inspired Lending) says Scotland deserves the same access to short-term finance as any other part of the UK. Link to article
