YBS Commercial Mortgages Appoints Michelle Lowe as Business Development Manager

YBS Commercial Mortgages has appointed Michelle Lowe as its new business development manager (BDM). Lowe will be based in Manchester and will cover the whole of the UK, according to the lender.

Lowe has worked in the financial services industry since 2004 and has specialised in commercial lending since 2014. Her experience includes supporting direct clients, introducers, and brokers with tailored finance solutions.

YBS Commercial Mortgages is the commercial lending arm of Yorkshire Building Society. The division provides specialist mortgages ranging from £500,000 up to £20 million for buy-to-let portfolios, commercial investments, semi-commercial properties, and owner-occupied businesses. The lender reduced rates on new business five-year fixed products last month.

Lowe will work alongside other members of the business development team, including Andrea Challis, head of broker strategy, and BDMs Luke Douse, Barry Dillon, Christian Gooderson, Thomas Mac Donnchadha Hill, and Chris Gagg.

This appointment may be of interest to letting agents and inventory clerks working with landlords and property investors seeking commercial mortgage solutions across the UK.
