Built by lenders, for one job.
Nimble Capital exists to do one thing well: bridging and refurbishment lending between £1m and £5m, on residential and semi-commercial property, delivered by people who have spent their careers doing exactly this.

D'mitri Zaprzala
Founder & Managing Director
D'mitri has spent more than twenty-five years in specialist property lending. He was Chief Executive of Avamore Capital, the bridging and development lender, and before that held senior roles at Octopus Real Estate, one of the UK's largest specialist property lenders. He has led origination, credit, and operations through rising markets and falling ones, and has seen at first hand where bridging processes break down and what it takes to fix them.
Nimble is the product of that experience: a lender designed from a blank sheet of paper around what the team knows best, rather than a broad institution with a bridging desk attached.
“Every bridging loan has two or three issues that could derail it. The difference between lenders is whether those are found within hours or in week six. We built Nimble to find them first.”
Modern infrastructure. Experienced judgement.
Nimble was built from day one on modern technology. When an enquiry lands, our systems do the heavy reading: gathering property data, checking counterparties, and assembling the file, so the facts of a deal are in front of an underwriter in hours rather than days. Just as importantly, they surface the issues that typically derail a short-term loan, title, planning, borrower history, the exit, at the start, so solutions are built into the terms rather than discovered mid-transaction.
The technology accelerates the work. It does not make the decisions. Every loan is underwritten, approved, and managed by experienced people, supported by independent professional valuations and specialist legal counsel. That combination, fast infrastructure and human judgement, is what lets us answer quickly without cutting corners.
Nimble lends its own balance sheet, backed by institutional capital. That means certainty of funds on the day of completion, and a lender whose interests are aligned with seeing every loan through to a clean repayment.
We measure ourselves on the things borrowers and brokers actually feel: how quickly the first answer arrives, whether the terms hold, and whether the completion date is met.
