At a glance
Shawbrook has renewed its funding line with specialist bridging finance lender SDKA, reinforcing a longstanding relationship that has supported the business’s growth since its early stages through to its continued success.
Founded in 2016, SDKA operates across residential, semi-commercial and commercial property, offering flexible bridging solutions throughout England, Wales and Scotland. Since partnering with Shawbrook in 2019, the lender has continued to expand its product offering and scale its operations, including the launch of Bridge to Term products and the use of automated valuation models (AVMs) in 2025.
Shawbrook’s flexible, relationship-led approach has enabled SDKA to pursue opportunities outside of standard criteria, supporting its ability to respond quickly to market demand while maintaining a strong lending track record.
The renewed funding line will support SDKA’s next phase of growth, as the business explores further diversification and continues to evolve its offering.
The relationships with our funding partners all boils down to one major factor, trust. We can make decisions on applications, rate changes and product launches without having to seek approval because our proven lending record speaks for itself. Shawbrook knows we pride ourselves on speed, precision and innovation in the bridging finance sector. The renewal of our agreement paves the way for the next exciting chapter in our story.
Hasna Qureshi, Associate Director at Shawbrook, commented:
“SDKA’s ability to scale its lending while continuing to evolve its product offering highlights the strength of the business. As their first institutional lender, Shawbrook has supported that growth by increasing funding in line with their ambitions. This latest renewal reflects the strength of the relationship and confidence in the team’s continued trajectory.”
