Commercial Mortgages Harlow
Harlow has a strong industrial and business base, an Enterprise Zone and fast road and rail links, so it generates a steady flow of commercial property purchases and refinances. BestQuote Commercial Finance arranges commercial mortgages for Harlow owner-occupiers and investors.
What is Commercial Mortgages?
Harlow was designated as a New Town in 1947 and laid out to a master plan by Sir Frederick Gibberd, with separate industrial areas, a town centre and neighbourhood shopping areas. The West Anglia main line runs to London Liverpool Street, the M11 passes through junctions 7 and 7a, and Stansted Airport is nearby. A commercial mortgage is a long-term loan secured on non-residential property such as offices, shops, warehouses or mixed-use buildings.
Established industrial areas such as Templefields and Pinnacles contain many owner-occupied units, and the Harlow Enterprise Zone and Science Park support newer office and laboratory space. Typical cases include trade and warehouse units bought by the business that uses them, shops with flats above in Old Harlow and Church Langley, and investment buildings let to national or local tenants. Lenders will look at the age and specification of the unit, which can vary a lot between older New Town buildings and newer developments.
