The figures fly in the face of other lenders who have reported more conservative figures following 11 September. The lender reported net lending figures of £1.08 million in October, which was 84 per cent higher than the same time last year.
Paul Ellis, chief executive of Ecology, said: “We are delighted but not surprised at the continued healthy growth in our mortgage lending. We remain leaders in our specialist niche. Every Ecology mortgage means yet more property or project is undertaken that will help to protect the environment.”
