It is a case of using our industry know-how to approach several lenders with an appetite for the type of lending you require. We negotiate strongly on your behalf and create competition between lenders to ensure you have the best rates for your business.

Differences between commercial and residential mortgages:

A commercial mortgage is in principle similar to a residential one. In both cases the lender will assess the applicant to ensure that they have the means to repay the loan and assess the security offered to ensure that they will be able to repay their debt if it comes to repossession.

Commercial mortgages can be taken out in the name of a business or commercial property investor and is based on both the business of their tenants and the income of the borrower being able to maintain the commitment.

The security offered will either be used in its entirety for commercial business or contain a mixture of commercial and residential use.
