Case Studies

When the standard route didn't fit.

Three business owners, three different problems: an old set of accounts, a tight deadline and a reluctance to borrow. This is how each one was solved.

Secured loan

£250k secured loan. Signed in 48 hours. Funds in 7 days.

Property owner, equity released from an existing property

The situation

A property completion was close and the client needed funds quickly. Equity in an existing property was the answer, but secured lending normally takes too long for a deadline like this.

What we did

We placed the case with a lender that could move at speed and kept it moving. The client signed within 48 hours of applying, and the only wait was the Land Registry update.

Amount

£250k

Term

5 years

Time to funds

7 days from first contact

Growth Guarantee Scheme loan

£60k Growth Guarantee Scheme loan. Funds in 10 days.

Growing business

The situation

The last filed accounts showed trading of around £100k. Trading had since grown to around £1.2M annualised, but there were no accounts to show it, so most lenders declined.

What we did

We built the case around current trading and found a lender that fit the structure of the business, placing it on the Growth Guarantee Scheme. Speed wasn't the priority. The right fit was.

Amount

£60k

Term

60 months

Time to funds

10 days from application

Credit line

Business owner, cash flow and VAT

The situation

The client was reluctant to borrow, but had a VAT bill due and gaps in cash flow.

What we did

We arranged a 3 month facility to cover the VAT, plus a flexible credit line to draw on, spread over up to 12 months, for later needs. They enquired in the morning, signed that afternoon and had funds available the same day.
