Kensington Mortgages has lent over £1 billion over a rolling 12-month period.

It surpassed this lending milestone following a surge in activity which accompanied the introduction of its buy-to-let limited company product and expansion of its residential lending product offerings, all of which have been implemented in the past six months.

Craig McKinlay, sales & marketing director at Kensington Mortgages, said: “At Kensington, our primary focus has always been to help Britain’s underserved borrowers, and this milestone proves that we are achieving that goal.

“This announcement is a culmination of the exciting product changes during 2018. It has once again demonstrated our commitment to the specialist lending market, as we reach out to a wider customer base and provide more flexibility for Buy-to-Let landlords.

“These latest changes have been received very positively by our intermediary partners, and we’re excited to announce that we will be making even more enhancements to our product range over the coming weeks.”
