A UK commercial property landlord sought to refinance a commercial property valued at around £5.25 million. The client needed to replace an existing small mortgage and access additional capital to fund the construction of a new warehouse on adjoining land. They also required funding to purchase a nearby site available at a competitive price, with a strict completion window. Speed and flexibility were essential.

This transaction was highly time sensitive. The client had to start construction quickly and complete the adjacent land purchase within a tight timeframe to secure the discounted price. Traditional commercial lenders often have lengthy underwriting processes, creating potential delays. Additionally, the financing structure needed to allow flexibility for a future equity event expected within three years, when the client planned to fully repay the loan.

Enness arranged a circa £1.25M variable-rate commercial mortgage within 24 hours of the initial enquiry. Terms were agreed on an attractive interest rate over five years, with no early repayment charges, a critical requirement given the client’s future repayment plan. Documentation was submitted quickly, and the lender issued an offer subject to valuation within a week. The entire refinancing and land acquisition process was completed in under six weeks, meeting both construction and purchase deadlines.
