Legal Advice For Secured Lending
Secured lending allows you to take out a loan using a key asset as collateral. In most cases, the collateral is property. Secured lending for property can also be reinvested back into the asset, raising its value. However, as with any secured loan, there are risks involved. So before you make a final decision, it’s vital to talk to a property law solicitor first.

Residential Secured Lending Services
It’s not just businesses that use secured loans to finance their operations. Homeowners also have the opportunity to acquire a secured loan. It is essential to think carefully before securing a loan based on your home. Failure to keep up with repayments may result in your home being repossessed.
Our legal team will be honest with you from the outset, helping you find the right secured lending at the right rate without overstretching your finances. Let us know your goals, and we will research the right loan to suit your needs. We aim to help you and your lender form a positive, long-term and mutually productive relationship.
What Are Your Options?
There are various types of secured loans. The loan you go for will depend on the size of the amount you want to borrow, how quickly you need access to the funds and the time scale of your business development. It will also be determined by the kind of investment you want to make into your operation.
Commercial Mortgages
One of the most common is a commercial mortgage. This works in exactly the same way as a mortgage for a house. They are generally secured for amounts over £25,000 and can be used for anything as long as it relates to your business. So, for example, if you need to refurbish a retail outlet, a commercial mortgage could be used to pay for the process. You could also apply it to expand an existing business by taking on a new property or a new business initiative, such as replacing your current delivery vans with EVs to boost your green credentials.
Bridging Loans
A bridging loan is used to support your business funding during a transitional period. You can also use one for time-sensitive acquisitions, such as property bought at an auction. They’re often used for short-term refinancing and consolidating existing financial commitments. Bridging loans are an excellent way to access finances quickly. However, repayment periods for bridging loans may be much shorter.
Development Loans
These are larger loans that are primarily used to fund property development projects. While some loans are paid in full at the start of an arrangement, others are paid in instalments at designated points in the project.
At OGR Stock Denton, our secured loans specialists will work with you to ensure that your funds are accessible as and when you need them. They will take the lead in each part of the process of securing a loan and drawing down funds. We’ll provide you with financial advice and support at every stage.
