British specialist lender Market Financial Solutions (MFS) has secured £125m in funding to meet growing demand for bridging products and buy-to-let (BTL) mortgages.

The latest funding, which comes from an investment bank, enhances MFS’ capacity and provides diversification for growing its specialist offerings. 

With a focus on large bridging loans and BTL mortgages, MFS hopes to grow its loan book to £1.1bn in 2023. 

The firm has a team of more than 80 employees operating from two offices. It plans to use the proceeds to expand its product lines

Based in London, the bridging lender was founded in 2006, and early this year, the firm launched its BTL mortgage offering to complement its existing portfolio. 

MFS’ BTL mortgage offerings cover both ‘vanilla’ and large, complex deals.
