What Affects Your Commercial Mortgage Rate?

Unlike residential mortgages, commercial mortgage rates aren’t listed on a public price comparison site. Rates are based on your individual circumstances and the property you’re financing.

Here are some of the main factors lenders consider:

  • Loan-to-value (LTV) – Lower LTVs usually get better rates
  • Property type – Retail, office, industrial, or specialist
  • Borrower profile – Business trading history or SPV structure
  • Repayment structure – Interest-only or full capital repayment
  • Credit strength – Business or personal financials
  • Tenancy – Vacant, owner-occupied, or let to third parties
