Commercial MortgageConsider a Commercial Mortgage for Your Business

A commercial mortgage is an agreement whereby a loan is secured on a commercial property such as a shop, restaurant, warehouse, factory or school. In most cases, commercial mortgage lenders will require you to have a good credit rating, and will also require you to invest a certain amount yourself, in the form of an initial deposit. As with residential mortgages, commercial lenders will apply a loan-to-value ratio on your mortgage, and will usually allow you to borrow up to 80% of the value of the property, as long as you meet their lending criteria. As you would expect, the success and stability of your business will play a part in whether your commercial mortgage application is successful, since the lender will want to ensure that they are not investing in a high-risk proposition.
