Commercial or business mortgages

Mortgages are simply loans that are secured on property. A commercial mortgage (sometimes called business mortgage) is secured on any property that is not residential.

TWO MAIN CATEGORIES

Commercial mortgages can be split into 2 main categories; an owner-occupier mortgage, where you are planning to trade from the premises you are buying, and a commercial investment mortgage, where you buy property to make available to rent. Commercial mortgages differ from residential mortgages in a few ways - there are no fixed rates, usually a higher rate of interest and a higher deposit (usually around 30%). However the interest on a commercial mortgage is tax deductible.

Accurate and comprehensive information

It is possible to get a business loan of up to £25,000, and these are unsecured, so there is no risk of losing property. However the interest rate on a loan is higher, as lenders have no security. There are various fees payable to arrange a commercial mortgage, such as arrangement, legal, valuation and broker fees. Make sure you have all the information you need so you can accurately judge whether you can afford the mortgage.

A limited company

If your business is a limited company, then a lender may require a personal guarantee. This is a guarantee from the borrower that they will pay the loan back from their private assets, such as a home or cash. This provides the lender extra security in case the limited company goes bust. A content legal charge is similar in that it pledges a property against the value of the loan, so the lender can take the property if the loan is defaulted.
