Make commercial property deals smoother with a VAT Loan that unlocks short-term cash flow for your clients.

The flexibility of a VAT Loan can take the pressure off cash reserves, allowing you to retain working capital to invest in other important business areas. As an alternative funding line, it smooths cash flow peaks and troughs without using up existing funds.

Could this help your clients?

Here’s how it works

Business owners could take the sting out of paying upfront VAT bills on commercial property by taking out a VAT loan with us. Our
solution provides a 5 month facility to SMEs, allowing them to retain valuable cash reserves for other important business areas.

We will work with businesses, assessing individual circumstances to decide if a VAT loan would be the right choice.
