Black & White Bridging has expanded its London and Manchester offices following a record year that saw it complete almost £160m of lending in 2025.
The short-term property lender said the move forms part of its longer-term growth strategy, as it seeks to strengthen its national presence and support rising demand for bridging finance.
In Manchester, the business has relocated to a newly designed headquarters in Spinningfields, with capacity for up to 40 team members and guests. The space has been purpose-built to accommodate a growing team and includes a private events area as well as the firm’s black-and-white branded phone booths.
The lender has also expanded its London office into a larger premises with capacity for up to 20 team members, increasing its footprint in the capital.
The investment follows what the firm describes as a record year in 2025, during which it completed almost £160m of lending. The business said the expansion reflects both increased volumes and a continued focus on supporting broker partners in a competitive short-term lending market.
Alongside the office moves, the lender has introduced a revised company-wide incentive structure. It said this is intended to support an office-led, post-pandemic working model aimed at improving collaboration and decision-making.
Damien Druce, chief operating officer at Black & White Bridging, says: “In 2025, we cemented our position as a leading short-term lender, completing almost £160m of lending across the year.
“These new offices are a clear statement of intent.
“They give our people an environment they’re proud to work in, strengthen how we collaborate, and support our ongoing focus on delivering standout service and outcomes for our broker partners.”
For brokers, the move signals further capacity within the lender as it looks to scale operations in both the north-west and London, while maintaining its focus on short-term property finance.
