BFS spreading its wings beyond NW
Wirral-based Bridging Finance Solutions has expanded its operation into Yorkshire and the Midlands with the appointment of commercial managers for each of the regions to support the company’s long-term business development and growth strategy.
The company has appointed 29-year-old Richard Gray to look after the Yorkshire area and Sue Barron to manage the Midlands.
The firm has been established for more than 10 years and is one of only a handful in the North West to secure FCA accreditation.
The latest news comes on the back of the firm’s announcements to double turnover in the year ahead to £50m in 2017.
Steve Barber, managing director at BFS, said: “We’ve really consolidated our presence in the North West and the next natural step for us is Yorkshire and the Midlands.
“We have always done business there but recognise the huge scope and potential of the regions. We knew that we wanted to open regional offices but it was really important to get that right people. Now with managers in place for both areas, we are incredibly excited to make this shift.”
He added: “Now is a fantastic time to be working within the bridging and development industry and BFS is a business that is enjoying real growth, particularly within the past three years which is in sync with a general upturn in the UK property market.
“People are now looking to property once again as a great investment or an opportunity to make fast money and whilst high street lending can still be challenging, bridging can often be the key that unlocks potential deals.”
