Residential

A residential mortgage is a loan used to purchase a home you intend to live in. Whether you are a first-time buyer, moving home, or remortgaging, securing the right mortgage deal is essential.

However, getting approved can be challenging. Lenders follow strict criteria, and if you have been declined before, it may seem like your options are limited. A mortgage broker with access to over 200 lenders and providers can help.

Why Use Optic Financial with Access to 200+ Lenders?

Rather than applying to a single bank, a mortgage broker can source options from a wide range of lenders, including high street banks and specialist providers. This can help you:

  • Find a lender willing to approve your application, even if others have declined it

  • Access exclusive mortgage deals that may not be available elsewhere

  • Match with the right lender, whether you are self-employed, have a complex income, or a low credit score

  • Save time by handling paperwork and negotiations on your behalf

Been Declined Elsewhere? Other Lenders May Say Yes

A rejection from one bank does not mean all lenders will say no. Each lender has different requirements, and some are more flexible. Our brokers focus on finding solutions when others cannot.

Find the Right Mortgage for Your Needs

If you need a lower interest rate, a higher borrowing amount, or a lender that will approve your application, we can assist.

A commercial mortgage is a loan secured against a property or premises used for business or investment purposes. Unlike residential mortgages, which apply to personal homes, commercial mortgages are designed for business owners, property investors, and developers. They provide funding to purchase, refinance, or release equity from commercial properties, buy-to-let properties, or land for commercial use.

These loans can support various needs, including acquiring office buildings, retail units, and warehouses or financing large-scale property developments.

How Do Commercial Mortgages Work?

Commercial mortgages function similarly to residential mortgages, with a lender providing a loan secured against a property. The borrower repays the loan through scheduled instalments. However, there are key differences. Commercial mortgages are designed for business purposes, offering flexible terms, higher borrowing limits, and repayment options tailored to businesses and investors.

Unlike residential mortgages, which follow set criteria, commercial mortgage terms vary based on factors such as business performance, property value, and intended use. Interest rates may be fixed or variable, and loan terms range from short-term bridging finance to long-term repayment plans. Lenders assess the viability of the business or investment by considering rental income potential and projected growth.

If you need funding to expand business premises, invest in rental properties, or finance a development project, a commercial mortgage can provide a suitable financial solution.

Struggling to Secure a Commercial Mortgage?

Many business owners face challenges securing commercial funding due to strict lending criteria. But every lender assesses applications differently. A broker with access to 200+ lenders can match you with those most likely to approve your application on competitive terms.

Commercial

Protection

Protection ensures financial security for you, your family, or your business in case of unexpected events. Whether it’s illness, injury, loss of income, or death, the right protection policies provide peace of mind and financial stability when needed.

Many people overlook protection, but without it, a sudden change in circumstances could make it difficult to cover mortgage payments, household bills, or business expenses.

Types of Protection We Offer

  • Life Insurance – Provides a lump sum payout to your loved ones if you pass away. This can help cover mortgage payments, living costs, or future expenses.

  • Critical Illness Cover – Pays a tax-free lump sum if you’re diagnosed with a serious illness, offering financial support when needed.

  • Income Protection – Replaces part of your income if you cannot work due to illness or injury, helping you stay financially stable.

  • Business Protection – Ensures businesses can continue operating if a key person becomes ill or passes away, safeguarding employees and operations.

Why Use a Broker for Protection?

Not all protection policies are the same, and the right cover depends on your personal and financial situation. By working with a broker who has access to over 200 insurers and providers, you can:

  • Find the best cover for your needs – Tailored to your lifestyle, income, and family situation.

  • Access exclusive deals and lower premiums – Potentially saving money compared to going direct.

  • Ensure a smooth claims process – Guidance and support when making a claim.

  • Protect your mortgage and future finances – Reducing financial risk if unexpected events occur.

Whether you want to secure your family’s future, protect your income, or safeguard your business, our team is ready to help.
