What is a commercial mortgage?

A commercial mortgage is a long-term secured loan used to purchase or refinance commercial property. Unlike residential mortgages, commercial mortgages are assessed primarily on the business's ability to service the debt and the value/quality of the property being secured.

They can be arranged for owner-occupied properties (where your business trades from the premises) or investment properties (where you let the property to a third party).

Types of commercial mortgage

Owner-Occupied Commercial Mortgage

Your business buys the freehold or long leasehold of the property it trades from. Monthly payments often compare favourably to rent — and you build equity over time rather than paying a landlord.

Commercial Investment Mortgage

Buying commercial property to let to a third-party tenant. Assessed primarily on the rental income coverage and tenant covenant strength. Common for retail units, industrial premises and offices.

Semi-Commercial Mortgage

Mixed-use properties combining commercial and residential elements — such as a shop with a flat above. These require specialist lenders comfortable with the hybrid security.

What types of property can be financed?

✅ Retail & high street
✅ Office buildings
✅ Industrial & warehouse
✅ Healthcare & dental
✅ Pubs & hospitality
✅ Care homes & HMOs
✅ Mixed-use freehold
✅ Petrol stations & garages
Expert View

"Commercial mortgage lenders vary enormously in their appetite for different property types, sectors and borrower profiles. High street banks often decline deals that specialist lenders see as straightforward. Having access to the whole market — including challenger banks and specialist lenders — changes the outcome."
