Getting a business loan can give you the financial support you need in a variety of situations. In fact, as long as your SME loan is spent on your business, we’re pretty flexible about how you use it. Working capital
Over 1/3 of SMEs use finance to boost working capital or cashflow, maintain business as usual or cover gaps in funding
New premises
Could a cash injection help you move to a new location, open an additional store or improve your existing facilities?
Unexpected bills
When disaster strikes or expenses mount up, secured SME funding can get your business back on track
Management buyout
Need to bring about real change? Financial support can facilitate a management buyout or buy-in
Start-up capital
You could use a secured new business loan to cover setup costs and get your idea off the ground
Growth
Other common uses of secured business loans include staff hires, training, new stock, equipment and marketing
Larger loan amounts
Offering your property as security can unlock higher amounts of business finance than you might get with less valuable assets or none at all. It’s the perfect business loan if you need to make a significant investment in growth or cover a long-term funding gap.
Better business loan rates
Most UK property finance agreements offer better interest rates as the value of your property means there’s less risk for the lender if you can’t make your repayments. In return, you’ll pay back less overall than with other types of business lending.
Accessible
Parliament research shows 41% of SMEs don’t think they’d be accepted for a business loan. But with the focus on your asset, property finance is among the best business loans available if you don’t fit standard lending criteria or have a poor credit history. You can also use your residential property if you lack fixed business assets.
Suitable for a range of businesses
The nature of this finance means any company with residential or commercial property can apply for a business loan. It’s not restricted to certain sectors or ages. And with short to mid-term SME finance available, it can suit various business plans and preferences too.
At Nucleus, we combine the financial expertise and credit facilities of traditional banks with the speed and flexibility of an alternative business funding provider. We’ve already lent over £2.6bn to UK SMEs – and yours could be next.

Secured, fixed-term UK business loans of up to seven years in length. We’ll transfer your loan in full then collect repayments in manageable monthly instalments. This type of business finance is ideal for borrowing large sums of money, whatever the purpose.
Secured, fixed-term loans of up to five years, repaid in monthly interest payments and one large sum in the final month. Due to the minimal monthly repayments, our interest-only UK small business loans are ideal if you need start-up funding or as much free working capital as possible.
From tech start-ups to property developers and fast-growing retailers, we offer finance for businesses of any sector or age. You can see examples of those we’ve worked with in our client stories.
You can apply for a secured business loan of between £25,000 and £5m, with loan-to-value ratios of up to 70% for residential properties and 65% for commercial. That’s enough to cover your everyday running costs or support a long-term growth project.
Using your commercial or residential property is a smart way to get better business loan rates. Our pricing starts at 1% per month for standard secured term loans and interest-only loans up to five years.
The total amount you repay will vary depending on which of our alternative business funding solutions you apply for. But whichever you do, we’ll agree the full cost of your small business loan upfront, and never charge any hidden extras.
We do our best to offer quick business loans when you need them. Once your property valuation is complete, the process usually takes around two to three weeks. You can help things along by hiring a good solicitor and having all your relevant documents readily available.
Some business finance providers will charge you extra for settling your loan early. With Nucleus, you can repay early at no extra cost providing you cover the full outstanding balance.
Typically, you’ll need to own residential or commercial property with adequate equity to get a secured commercial loan. We can also consider third-party guarantors with security.
Property finance isn’t for everyone. Luckily, it’s just one of the various business lending products we offer. From cash advances to our popular Nucleus Business Loans, view our full range of business finance solutions. We can also offer you a tailored combination of multiple products.
