Our UK Property Finance services

Commercial Mortgages

Commercial mortgages are a type of long-term loan designed to help businesses buy, refinance, or expand their commercial properties - like warehouses, offices and shops.

Repayment terms from 3 to 25 years

Maximum loan-to-value (LTV) ratio is typically 75% of the value of the property you’re looking to purchase

Commercial mortgages are secured against the property that you require the loan for

Bridging Loans

Ideal if you need a fast, short-term solution to bridge any funding gaps - for example, if you’re completing on a time-sensitive purchase, refurbishing to remortgage or even releasing equity from your property to support your business.

They’re quick to arrange, so are more suitable for time-sensitive property purchases or auctions

Flexible repayment options are available

Bridging loans may have higher interest rates as they’re seen as higher risk due to their short-term nature

Development Finance

If you’re starting a new construction or renovation project - whether that’s for a new build or a conversion - development finance can help you cover the costs.

Cover costs like land, planning and building materials

Funding is released in stages, tied to project milestones and valuations

Interest is typically only charged on the drawn amount, so you only pay for what you’re using

Limited Company Buy-to-Let Mortgages

You’ll need a buy-to-let mortgage if you are wanting to purchase a property to rent through your limited company.

Designed for purchasing or remortgaging properties that are, or will be, let to tenants

Loan affordability is typically calculated based on the projected rental income

Companies are generally able to deduct mortgage interest as a business expense

Second Charge Mortgages

If you already own a property and are wanting to release equity to invest in a new project, you can use a second charge mortgage to inject cash into your business.

Second charge mortgages ranks behind the first mortgage, meaning the original lender will have priority in the event of repossession

Maximum loan-to-value (LTV) ratio is typically 75% of the value of the property you’re looking to purchase

Interest rates on second charge mortgages tend to be higher than on first charge loans as there’s an increased risk for the lender
