How do you deliver commercial funding to your clients in 2024? If you missed our recent webinar, it's now live on the Brickflow website. Over 80 attendees from the CRE finance community attended, and in my (humble) opinion, it's a great watch if you're a broker and looking to stay competitive. In the webinar, we cover: Market Update ➡️ Why we think the CRE market is set to be more buoyant than 2023 ➡️ How brokers can take advantage of around 40% of commercial property loans due to mature in 2024/2025 ➡️ EPC changes are coming - why it's a good time to invest in the refurbishment of investment properties and how a bridging loan could help Lender Insights ➡️ Why lenders are ready to embrace technology ➡️ Why Barclays are using Brickflow ➡️ The impact of streamlining the application process. How to source funding fast ➡️ Ina talks us through how brokers can use Brickflow to search and apply for commercial mortgages in minutes in a live platform demo. It was great to see so many Brickflow users and new faces attend, and we look forward to hosting our next webinar soon. Watch it here https://lnkd.in/eYsav_sH What topics would you like us to discuss In future webinars?
