Supporting local councils to encourage local investment in private sector housing

We have been lending funds on behalf of councils since 2005 and specialise in lending to owner occupiers, landlords, and empty property owners. Ultimately, our aim is to support local councils with incentivising investment in private sector housing.

Authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, Lendology manage the whole loan application from assessment, approval, paperwork and direct debit collections. Our comprehensive reporting suite ensures each council has full oversight of their funds.

Lendology CIC is a B Corp, social enterprise lender, working in partnership with local councils across the UK. Working with council partners, we provide access to low cost, responsible finance.

We make our lending decisions with people, for people and put impact before profit.

We disrupt traditional lending with our decisions powered by partnerships and people, enriching homes and lives through responsible finance.

Who do we partner with?

We partner with local and unitary authorities, fund managers and other organisations to support home improvements, the climate agenda, and socio-economic housing solutions.

Why partner with us?

Our council partners recognise the value of their investment in the Lendology loan scheme. Partnerships support improving private sector housing stock across diverse communities.

“Cost effective, focused and innovative partner developing and delivering a range of offers that as a local authority we have neither the time nor expertise to do.”

How to become a partner?

We work with you to understand the housing issues you are looking for a loan scheme to address, and advise on best policy to stimulate activity and deliver your strategic aims.

Lendology CIC are a registered supplier on the Crown Commercial Services platform, easing the procurement process.
