We have access to a wide range of commercial lending solutions and can help your investors and developers who have more specific or niche requirements. 

Lenders we work with can provide finance for the following:

Trading businesses (leisure, retail and industrial)
Semi-commercial (such as a shop with a flat above)
Mixed portfolio
Standard commercial property
Single residential property
Multiple units on one title
HMO/student lets – investment valuation/brick and mortar valuation
Portfolio finance
Blocks of flats

Is it possible to take out a mortgage on a business and residential property?

We can help people do just that. One of our customers was able to:

  • Secure a mortgage of £315,000 to purchase a semi-commercial property 
  • LTV of 70%
  • Cover 100% of costs to renovate the property
  • Fund the entire purchase and renovation project

Customer story

Our customer wanted to purchase a semi-commercial property, which consisted of a shop on the ground floor and two flats above. The property was valued at £280,000 before the work was done and this was the agreed purchase price. He also wanted £35,000 to create two extra flats on the ground floor. 

There was as added complication due to a delay in the completion of the purchase after the contracts had been exchanged. It was clear the work carried out by the customer would increase the value of the property and so we approached lenders who we knew would consider the case. During this extended period of exchange, the customer was able to create the two ground-floor flats. 

Our knowledge of our specialist commercial lender panel and the excellent relationships we enjoy with the underwriters meant we were able to articulate exactly what had been done to the property to raise its market value. Our customer was really pleased he was able to fund the whole project using his commercial mortgage.
