HCR Law has appointed Kelly Davies (pictured, right) as partner and head of real estate finance.
Davies’ appointment aims to enhance the team’s specialist offering, which includes bridging loans, investment and acquisition finance, development finance, and buy-to-let mortgages.
Clare Day, who is handing over the reins, will continue to support Davies and the team to grow and manage key client relationships, alongside her responsibilities as head of the firm’s financial services sector.
The real estate finance team has experienced significant growth over the past five years, with members located across HCR Law’s offices to provide national coverage for clients.
The team has secured numerous lender panel appointments with both traditional and challenger banks, including recent appointments to Hampshire Trust Bank’s specialist mortgage and bridging panels.
This growth has also led to the establishment of a dedicated mortgage division focused on supporting clients with buy-to-let investment lending.
Davies said: “I’m thrilled to be joining such a dynamic, forward-thinking firm and a team with such a diverse range of expertise.
“Heading up HCR Law’s specialist Real Estate Finance team is an exciting opportunity, and I look forward to assisting our clients across the country with their funding needs.”
Clare Day added: “I am delighted to welcome Kelly. She is an excellent addition for HCR Law, and her expertise in real estate finance will strengthen the team, creating a wider range of opportunities for businesses across England and Wales.”
