Case Study

Mixed-use property — completed in 8 weeks.

A client came to us to purchase a mixed-use property — a retail unit with two flats above. Many lenders won't touch semi-commercial cases, but we identified a specialist commercial lender comfortable with the structure and presented the application correctly. The £650,000 purchase completed at 70% LTV within eight weeks.

To completion

"We needed funding to buy the industrial unit our business had been renting for years, and our own bank kept dragging its feet. Option Finance understood exactly how to structure the deal, brought in a lender who got commercial property, and made the whole thing straightforward. Genuinely impressed."
James T. — Managing Director, Manufacturing Business

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a commercial mortgage?
A commercial mortgage is a loan secured against a non-residential property such as offices, shops, warehouses, pubs, or mixed-use buildings. Terms, rates, and criteria differ significantly from residential mortgages.
How much deposit do I need for a commercial mortgage?
Commercial mortgages typically require a deposit of 25-40% of the property value, depending on the property type, your business financials, and the lender.
What types of commercial property can I finance?
We can help with offices, retail units, industrial units, warehouses, pubs and restaurants, care homes, mixed-use properties, land with planning permission, and development finance.
How long are commercial mortgage terms?
Commercial mortgage terms typically range from 3 to 25 years, with some lenders offering up to 30 years. The term depends on the property type, your age, and the lender.
Can I get a commercial mortgage for a new business?
While more challenging, some lenders will consider new businesses, particularly if you have relevant experience and can demonstrate a solid business plan. We'll find the right lender for your situation.
Can I use a commercial mortgage to buy a mixed-use property with a flat above a shop?
Yes — mixed-use or semi-commercial properties are a specialism. Lenders assess these differently to pure commercial or pure residential properties, and not all lenders will touch them. We know which lenders are most receptive and how to structure the application correctly.
How is a commercial mortgage different from a bridging loan?
A commercial mortgage is a longer-term product (typically 3-25 years) secured against a commercial property. A bridging loan is short-term (usually 3-24 months) and used to move quickly — for example, buying at auction or completing before a sale. We arrange both, and can advise on which is right for your situation.
