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
