What problems does Propp solve for borrowers?

Propp provides transparent access to specialist property finance. At the moment, there is no way of seeing what options are open to you as a borrower, without jumping through lots of hoops or knowing whether the rate provided is the best for your situation. We want to remove these barriers.

What is your Optimiser service and why is it so important to a borrower?

Propp’s Optimiser service gets lenders competing for your business, meaning more options and better rates, and the confidence that you’ve been presented with the fullest range of property financing options available - all while time and money are saved.

Who do you work with?

We support people across the UK that see value in property, be that landlords, business owners or developers.

Why is having a larger pool of lenders so advantageous?

Traditional lenders dominate the market but are limited in their rates and products. Challenger banks and smaller lenders are stepping in to plug the gap left by the traditional players. For the typical borrower, this increases the likelihood of securing funding, and, when Optimised, likely on better terms.

What are the benefits of using Propp over a traditional mortgage broker?

In short: transparency, speed and control. By bringing the specialist property finance market online, borrowers can now quickly and easily view and compare rates - getting a fuller picture than traditional brokers provide. Propp then gets to work optimising deals, negotiating competitive deals between multiple lenders, and provides a bespoke quote within 24 hours.
