Cutts (pictured) has spent a decade in UK property investment and conveyancing. He previously worked for Blackfinch Property, originating and managing bridging and development finance loans. Prior to that he managed property transactions at a specialist property conveyancer.

In his new role, Cutts will be leading the due diligence and progressing deals through to completion. He reports to Uliana Kuzmis, HTB’s deputy managing director for development finance.

Cutts said: “This is an exciting time to become part of HTB’s award-winning development finance team. I’m proud to be joining a dynamic and market-leading team with a proven track record in delivering exceptional service in such an important sector.

“This is a great opportunity to build on my background in real estate and contribute to the team’s success going forward.”

Kuzmis added: “We are thrilled to welcome Lucas to our development finance team. In the short time he has been with us, he has demonstrated exceptional development finance knowledge, an enthusiastic work ethic and excellent commitment to our borrowers and brokers. All that in addition to a magnificent sense of humour and impeccable style. I have no doubt that Lucas will be hugely successful in his new role.”
