Norton Home Loans secures expanded warehouse funding

Published on

Norton Home Loans has secured a new senior warehouse facility with Citi to support growth across its first and second charge mortgage propositions.

The facility represents a material increase in scale compared with Norton’s existing funding arrangements and is intended to support lending across a broader section of the non-standard mortgage market, alongside continued expansion in the second charge sector.

The funding comes during a period of operational change for the group, which is currently investing in technology and preparing to relocate to new premises in February 2026.

Norton was advised on the transaction by NIB Advisors, with legal support provided by Pinsent Masons.

The lender has a long-established presence in the specialist mortgage market, working with borrowers who have complex credit histories or non-standard income and property profiles. Recent investment in lending technology and credit analytics is intended to support faster decision making and provide intermediaries with direct access to underwriters.

Paul Stringer (pictured), co-chief executive at Norton Group, said: “This facility marks an important step in the next phase of Norton Home Loans’ growth and gives us the capacity to continue evolving our product offering.

“It will help our introducers place more customers with confidence, while allowing us to keep identifying opportunities within the specialist lending market.

“We’d like to thank the team at Citi for their support in helping us deliver this milestone.”
