About Us
Making Auction Bridging Loans Faster and Fairer
Auction Bridging Loans was founded with a single purpose: to give UK property auction buyers access to fast, transparent bridging finance they can actually rely on. No jargon, no hidden fees, no missed deadlines.
Our Story
Auction Bridging Loans was founded by Matt Lenzie, a former banker and corporate finance partner who spent over 25 years working at the heart of financial services across the United Kingdom.
Having witnessed first-hand how traditional lending institutions often failed property auction buyers — with slow processes, opaque fee structures, and rigid criteria that did not suit the pace of auction transactions — Matt set out to build something better.
The result is Auction Bridging Loans: a specialist bridging finance intermediary that connects UK property auction buyers with a carefully curated panel of lenders who genuinely understand the auction process. Our lender partner can complete bridging loans in as little as 7 days, giving buyers the confidence to bid at auction knowing their finance is arranged.
Today, we arrange auction bridging loans for property buyers across England, Scotland, and Wales — from first-time auction investors purchasing a flat in Manchester to experienced developers acquiring commercial property in central London.
