The problem

Why this capability exists.

Commercial mortgage decisions vary wildly between lenders depending on covenant, sector and tenancy — generalist brokers rarely test more than a handful.

Our approach

  1. 01

    Underwrite the asset, the tenant and the operator together.

  2. 02

    Run a structured market exercise across 41 commercial lenders.

  3. 03

    Negotiate rate, LTV, amortisation and break clauses in parallel.

Outcomes you can expect

  • Median LTV uplift of 8% vs first-quote
  • 41 active commercial lenders on panel
  • Sector-specific pricing for hospitality, industrial, healthcare

Typical structures

How commercial mortgages deals are commonly built.

Indicative structures we orchestrate across our capital partners. Final terms depend on borrower profile, asset and exit.

01

Capital & Interest

Standard amortising loan, 5–30yr terms, fixed or tracker.

02

Interest-Only

Asset-backed exit; common for HNW, BTL portfolios and private bank clients.

03

Offset / Lombard

Liquid assets pledged to reduce effective rate; private bank structures.
