Commercial Mortgages
Long-term finance for commercial property. Offices, retail, industrial, healthcare, and hospitality. Owner-occupied or investment, with terms from 3 to 25 years.
Finance that works as hard as your business
Whether you are purchasing premises for your own business or investing in commercial property for rental income, securing the right mortgage is critical. Commercial mortgages differ significantly from residential lending, with lenders placing greater emphasis on the property itself, the tenant covenant, and your business performance.
Doulton Bridging Finance navigates this specialist market on your behalf. We work with commercial lenders across our panel of 130+ to find competitive rates and flexible terms that suit your property type and business objectives, from high street retail units to large industrial facilities.

Frequently asked questions
What types of UK mortgage can Doulton arrange?
Residential, buy-to-let, portfolio, limited-company BTL, HMO, commercial, semi-commercial, high-value, private bank, expat, interest-only, second-charge and specialist adverse-credit mortgages. We work across the whole of market.
How much can I borrow?
Residential borrowing is typically 4-5.5x income depending on the lender and profile. Buy-to-let lending is sized on rental income against stress-tested interest cover ratios. High-value lending and private bank cases are assessed holistically on wealth and serviceability.
What is the minimum deposit?
Residential mortgages typically need 5-15% deposit. Buy-to-let usually requires 20-25%. Specialist, high-value and expat ranges often require 25-40%. Larger deposits unlock better rates across every product.
Can I get a mortgage with complex income or adverse credit?
Yes. Self-employed, contractor, commission-based, bonus-reliant and multi-currency incomes all have specialist lender homes. Borrowers with recent defaults, CCJs, DMPs or historic bankruptcy can also be placed, with pricing reflecting the risk profile.
How long does a mortgage application take?
Straightforward residential applications reach offer in 2-4 weeks. Specialist, high-value and expat cases typically take 4-8 weeks. Conveyancing and exchange after that is driven by your solicitor's speed.
