Paragon grows lending

PROFESSIONAL LANDLORD FOCUS DRIVES MORTGAGE LENDING GROWTH AT PARAGON

• First half mortgage lending up 16% to £834 million (31 March 2018: £721 million)
• New lending dominated by complex and professional landlord business
• Underlying profit in the mortgage segment up 17% to £85 million

Paragon, the specialist banking group, has reported a 16% increase in first half mortgage lending to £834 million, up from £721 million in the same period last year.

Buy-to-let business dominated new mortgage lending, up by 17% to £788 million, benefitting from Paragon’s focus on professional landlords with larger portfolios who are becoming increasingly important to the supply of private rented property in the UK.

The proportion of ‘complex’ buy-to-let completions – comprising customers operating through corporate structures or running large portfolios - increased from 72% to 88% of the total during the first half and represented 92% of the pipeline of future business at the end of March.

Underlying profits in the mortgage segment grew by 17% to £85 million and the net interest margin – which measures the difference between Paragon’s funding costs and what it earns from lending - improved from 1.55% in the first half last year to 1.69%.

By the end of the period, Paragon’s mortgage loan book had increased by 7% to £10.8 billion.

Alongside mortgage lending, Paragon delivered an 89% year-on-year increase in its Commercial Lending portfolio to £1.3 billion demonstrating good progress in its strategic transformation to a more broadly-based banking group focussed on supporting British SMEs and consumers in specialist lending markets.

The increase in lending was funded principally through an increase in the Group’s savings deposits which grew 37% to £5.9 billion.

John Heron, Managing Director of Mortgages at Paragon reflects: 

“Complexity around the private rented sector resulting from fiscal changes and increased regulation has resulted in a shift in balance with professional landlords providing a greater proportion of the supply of rented homes. Paragon’s experience of lending in this segment over the last 20 years has helped to consolidate a leading market position and grow market share where others have seen their positions eroded.

Private landlords are vital to the UK’s housing provision and we continue to develop our product and service capability to support them in developing their business."

Paragon offers short term lending

PARAGON EXPANDS PRODUCT RANGE WITH SHORT TERM FUNDING FOR LANDLORDS

• Short term finance for landlords to fund property refurbishment
• Choice of options to cover property acquisition as well as upgrades to existing property
• Interest can be rolled up or paid monthly
• Opportunity to convert to a buy-to-let mortgage with reduced application fees

Paragon is expanding its specialist buy-to-let mortgage range with new short term finance products for property acquisition and refurbishment.

The short term finance products are designed to help landlords planning to purchase and improve property, as well as those looking to upgrade already-owned property to achieve a better yield.

The range includes three different options to cover standard, light and heavy refurbishment projects. This makes it suitable for landlords considering simple improvements, those undertaking refitting and modernisation work and those carrying out alterations that need planning permission, permitted development rights or building regulations. The range also extends to projects involving a change of use for HMOs and multi-unit conversions.

All options offer loan amounts of up to £1,000,000, with maximum loan to value (LTV) ratios ranging from 65% to 75% and terms from one month to 12 months depending on the option selected. Loans are interest only and come with a choice of either monthly payments or rolled up interest.

Landlords applying for standard and light finance with a maximum term of six months can also opt for a simultaneous short term finance and buy-to-let mortgage application on the same property. These applications will be assigned the same underwriter to improve continuity and customers will benefit from reduced mortgage application fees.

John Heron, Director of Mortgages at Paragon comments: 

“Short term finance is an important part of the funding mix especially for professional landlords looking to grow or reconfigure their property portfolio.

“As landlord tax changes begin to bite, property refurbishments can offer an attractive route to boost capital value and improve yield.”
