British businesses have borrowed almost £35bn

Under the government’s three emergency coronavirus credit programmes, but the approval rate for coronavirus business interruption loans (CBILS) remains just over 50%. Of the 93,305 businesses that applied for a loan under the scheme, just 47,650 were approved.

Here at Hilton Smythe we have assisted our customers in safeguarding their businesses by obtaining £4.4m so far, with 100% of our applications being approved. If you need any assistance with this process, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

We are not just doing CBILS, I am delighted to have just completed on 2 SIPP investment loans for a property purchase, thanks to Sharon Harrison and a commercial mortgage for a Clothing Manufacturer, thanks to Janet Watson even in this difficult time for lenders.

Commercial Mortgage

Our client saw an advert for Café G, an artisan kitchen and coffee house in Dulwich, South London, with seating for 50 customers inside and for 30 outside and a franchise business Gymboree, which offers sensory baby play combining music and movement. The businesses were being sold through Hilton Smythe Business Sales, part of the Hilton Smythe Group.

Once we understood the full financial picture, we were able to submit a lending proposal to acquire both advertised businesses. With a shortfall of a cash deposit, additional security was offered to a high street lender, which following a valuation meant the client could borrow enough to make the purchase.
