A different financing question

This is not residential self-employed qualification.

A residential self-employed mortgage asks how personal income supports a home. This journey asks how a commercial property, the operating business, the owners, and the capital request fit together.

Commercial property

Property use, occupancy, business performance, borrower strength, valuation, conditions, and use of funds are reviewed as one file.

Residential self-employed

The focus is qualifying an individual for a home mortgage when business income needs additional documentation or context.

Capital uses

The property can be part of the next business decision.

An equity release should be tied to a specific operating or ownership plan—not treated as unstructured cash.

  1. 01Expand into more operating space or a new location
  2. 02Purchase equipment tied to the next stage of the business
  3. 03Fund a partner buyout or ownership transition
  4. 04Support working capital with a defined business purpose
  5. 05Address a time-sensitive acquisition or business need

Available financing and permitted uses depend on the property, business, borrower, lender, valuation, and full underwriting review.

Commercial review path

Build the file before choosing the lender desk.

The first review organizes the property, business, borrower, and request. It does not promise pricing, proceeds, timing, or an approval outcome.

01

Property and occupancy

We clarify the property type, location, zoning, condition, current or planned business use, and any third-party occupancy.

02

Business and borrower

We review the operating company, ownership, financial history, cash flow, credit context, and the people supporting the request.

03

Request and capital plan

We connect the purchase, refinance, or equity release to a clear use of funds and a structure the business can support.

04

Lender lane and conditions

We identify an appropriate commercial lender path and prepare for valuation, environmental, legal, and other property-specific review.

Useful first documents

Bring what already exists.

A first conversation can begin before every report is complete. Existing documents help identify what the lender path may require next.

  • Purchase agreement or current mortgage statement
  • Recent business financial statements
  • Property details and current occupancy
  • Existing appraisal or environmental reports, if available
  • Ownership and personal net worth information
  • A concise use-of-funds and business plan

Start with the business decision

Tell us what the property needs to make possible.

We’ll organize the commercial financing question around the property, operating business, ownership, and purpose of funds.
