Whether you are buying premises, funding expansion or developing property, the borrowing needs to work with your plans. We prepare your case and approach lenders suited to the transaction.
Start Your EnquiryBusiness-purpose finance. Fortis is a broker, not a lender.
Finance for buying or refinancing eligible business premises and commercial investment property. Assessment may consider business income, rental income, valuation and the proposed security.
Borrowing supported by an eligible property or business asset. The lender will consider the security, repayment capacity and any existing charges.
Business borrowing without a charge over a specified asset. Approval depends on the lender’s assessment, and a personal guarantee may still be required.
Short-term finance for a time-sensitive property or business transaction. A credible repayment route is central to the application.
Funding for eligible ground-up developments and refurbishment projects. Facilities may release funds in stages against progress and lender conditions.
This may suit an established business investing in growth, an owner purchasing premises, or a developer with a defined project and repayment strategy.
Secured property or assets may be repossessed if repayments are not maintained. Personal guarantees can create personal liability. Bridging and development finance carry risks if the intended sale or refinancing does not complete.
We discuss the proposed terms and charges before you decide whether to proceed. All facilities remain subject to provider criteria, status and credit checks.
Our lender network gives us access to over 200 commercial lenders. We approach providers whose criteria fit the enquiry; the number of options available depends on your circumstances.
Tell us what you need to fund, the amount and your preferred timing. We establish the business circumstances before looking at potential routes.
We gather the business accounts and borrowing details, plus property, valuation, project or exit information relevant to the facility.
We approach suitable providers and explain the proposed costs, security and next steps. You decide whether to proceed; the lender makes the credit decision.
Fortis is a broker, not a lender. Our broker fee is 1.5% of the loan amount or £2,995, whichever is greater. We may also receive commission from the lender. Lender arrangement, valuation, legal and other charges may apply, depending on the facility.
We arrange finance for business purposes only. We are not authorised or regulated by the FCA and do not give advice or recommendations on regulated products. Enquiries that fall within FCA regulation are introduced to Loan.co.uk Limited, an independent FCA-authorised firm (FRN 718486). We may receive an introduction fee.
Read our fees and disclosuresWe can explore eligible refinancing enquiries. The assessment should consider any existing repayment charges alongside the interest, fees and conditions of the proposed facility.
Timing depends on the lender, the information available and any valuation, legal or project requirements. We will explain the relevant stages once we understand the case; an enquiry does not guarantee completion by a particular date.
No. A lender may require a personal guarantee even without taking a charge over a specified asset. Review the guarantee and obtain independent legal advice where appropriate.
The lender assesses how and when the facility will be repaid. Supporting evidence may include a sale plan or a proposed refinancing route, together with realistic timing and contingencies.
Start with the amount, purpose and timing. A named case handler will explain the information needed next.
