Finance · Semi-commercial bridging

Mixed income.
One coherent structure.

Short-term finance for properties combining commercial space with residential accommodation.

The Wentworth view

Mixed-use property needs both sides of the asset understood.

A flat above a shop or another mixed-use asset cannot be assessed through residential rent alone. Covenant, leases, access, planning and valuation methodology all matter.

We select lenders comfortable with the precise residential-to-commercial split and present one coherent credit case.

This service is limited to unregulated, business-purpose property finance.
