Are you a first-time developer? A buy-to-let investor? Or someone stuck in a property chain and losing time? Whatever your goal, speed matters. So does cost.
At Sunrise Commercial Finance, we work with a specialist lender offering one of the fastest and most affordable bridging finance options in the UK — with no valuation fees and in-house assessments to stop delays and down valuations from killing your deal.
Here’s how you can move faster, save money, and get the funding you need — whether you’re buying a flat, refurbishing a shop, or flipping a semi-commercial building.
Why In-House Valuations Make a Big Difference
Most bridging lenders rely on external valuers to assess properties. That takes time — sometimes days, sometimes weeks. Worse still, when these valuations come in lower than expected, your loan offer can drop or fall through entirely.
Our featured lender solves this problem by doing all valuations internally.
✔️ No valuation fee to pay
✔️ No revaluation risk
✔️ No time wasted waiting for surveyors
This one change makes a huge difference. You get faster decisions and greater certainty — so you can move forward with confidence.
How Much Can I Borrow?
Here are the key figures:
| Loan Type | Minimum Loan | Maximum Loan | Loan Term | Loan-to-Value (LTV) |
| Residential Bridging | £100,000 | £3,000,000+ | 3–18 months | Up to 75% (GDV) |
| Commercial Bridging | £100,000 | £5,000,000+ | 3–18 months | Up to 70% (MV) |
| Semi-Commercial Bridging | £100,000 | £4,000,000+ | 3–18 months | Up to 70% (MV) |
LTV limits vary depending on property type, location, and exit strategy. If you’re unsure how much you could borrow, get in touch for a no-obligation quote.
What Properties Are Accepted?
We can help fund a wide range of properties across England, Scotland, and Wales:
- Residential property (including uninhabitable or non-standard)
- Commercial buildings (offices, retail, industrial, hospitality, etc.)
- Mixed-use and semi-commercial units (like shops with flats above)
- Land with planning or potential
Auction buyers, cash-flow investors, and developers looking for a fast exit often benefit most from this type of finance.
