UK property finance asset manager LendInvest has completed its eighth residential mortgage-backed securitisation, Mortimer 2026-1, backed by a £265m portfolio of loans.

The portfolio comprises 1,240 prime UK buy-to-let mortgages originated and serviced by LendInvest BTL, with a further £35m of pre-funding, the firm said.

LendInvest, which has £5.48bn of funds under management, said the deal attracted demand from institutional investors across the capital structure, from the Class A to the Class C notes.

“The strength of demand across the capital structure, including from bank treasury investors, reflects the broad institutional appetite for LendInvest’s mortgage assets,” said Rod Lockhart, chief executive of LendInvest.

“It also demonstrates the strength and depth of the investor relationships we have built through the Mortimer programme.”

Mortimer 2026-1 is also the first LendInvest deal to qualify under the UK’s Simple, Transparent and Standardised (STS) securitisation framework, which is designed to make securitisations easier for investors to understand and assess.

The firm said this broadens the institutional investor base for its mortgage assets, including among bank treasury investors.
