We’re incredibly proud to announce that Somo has been named Best Regional Bridging Lender of the Year at the 2025 Bridging & Commercial Awards.


Recognised for Putting Brokers First

This award is a huge moment for our team and a powerful endorsement of what we stand for.

The award celebrates bridging lenders who have made a significant impact in regional markets across the UK and we’re thrilled to be recognised for doing exactly that. From day one, Somo has built its reputation not just on speed and flexibility, but on strong broker relationships and commitment to making bridging, and broker's lives, easier.

“This award is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the entire Somo team,” said Jade Keval, Sales Director. “We’d like to thank our brokers, introducers, clients and everyone who supports what we do. We’ll keep working hard to make bridging as easy and supportive as it should be.”


Why Make Bridging Difficult?

At Somo, we believe in doing things differently and more importantly, doing things better. That’s why our brand promise is simple: Why make bridging difficult?

Whether it’s a second charge bridging loan or our newly launched Prime product for first charge borrowing, our team is focused on making things easier for brokers. We do that through our:

  • 360View approach — We look at every deal from all angles to find a way to say yes.

  • Broker-first mentality — Everything we do is designed around making brokers lives and lending easier.

  • Regional strength — We understand that not all deals are born in London. And we’re proud to support brokers across the UK with deep local market knowledge.
