Our History

Clifton Private Finance was founded in 2016, with the ambition of filling a gap in the specialist property finance market left in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crash.

With brokerages throughout the UK shifting their focus towards conventional and risk-averse lending requirements, our founders identified a genuine need for specialist mortgage advice that provided a holistic, long-term and client-centric approach.

From international buyers requiring an independent comparison of products on the market, to individuals with complex income portfolios struggling to leverage their wealth effectively towards property ownership, we specialise in securing finance in challenging and unique circumstances.

In 2017, we established our dedicated bridging finance team based in Cardiff. Having grown from a team of two to over ten bridging specialists over the years, today the team is responsible for multiple award wins and industry accolades. From buy-before-sell residential bridging to complex development exit solutions, the team are genuine leaders in the field of short-term property finance.

Since then, we've also expanded our services into the business finance market, with a team of specialist brokers dedicated to helping businesses optimise their borrowing for growth and working capital. Covering a diverse spectrum of business finance solutions, ranging from asset finance to revolving credit facilities and invoice finance, the team supports a multitude of business types across varying sizes and sectors, helping them secure cost-effective, flexible and tailored funding for their business ambitions.
