Hampshire Trust Bank (HTB) has expanded its development finance team with the addition of Lucas Cutts as relationship manager for London and the South East.
Cutts has worked in property investment and conveyancing for 10 years, most recently at Blackfinch Property, where he originated and managed bridging and development finance loans.
Prior to that he managed property transactions at a specialist property conveyancer.
At HTB, Cutts will be responsible for the lender’s development finance projects in London and the South East, leading the due diligence and progressing deals through to completion.
He reports to Uliana Kuzmis, HTB’s deputy managing director for development finance.
Cutts says: “This is an exciting time to become part of HTB’s award-winning development finance team. I‘m proud to be joining a dynamic and market-leading team with a proven track record in delivering exceptional service in such an important sector.
“This is a great opportunity to build on my background in real estate and contribute to the team’s success going forward.”
Kuzmis says: “We are thrilled to welcome Lucas to our development finance team. In the short time he has been with us, he has demonstrated exceptional development finance knowledge, an enthusiastic work ethic and excellent commitment to our borrowers and brokers. All that in addition to a magnificent sense of humour and impeccable style. I have no doubt that Lucas will be hugely successful in his new role.”
