• Refinance of an unencumbered yard with multiple tenants, plus funds to build two further units on site – £300,000
• Refinance of a family-owned autocentre to fund a new showroom for its car sales and detailing business – £175,000

• Restructure of short-term, high-interest debt and raise working capital to support business growth – £80,000

These deals involved very different clients and very different requirements, but they shared one factor in common. They came to ASC, and we got the deal done.

Exceptional service is standard wherever you're based, as these five-star reviews from across the network demonstrate:

"I honestly can't recommend ASC Finance enough, and in particular Emily, who was absolutely amazing from start to finish. This was a very complex mortgage that went on for quite a long time, with plenty of hurdles along the way. I never felt like I was left wondering what was happening, whether that was by phone, email or text. Given how complicated this mortgage became, I genuinely don't think anybody else could have got it over the line." – ASC Essex

"Excellent service from Rob. He was professional, helpful, and made the finance process much easier. He was always there whenever I needed him." – ASC Oxfordshire

"Conrad and his team recently secured me a deal that others could not. Their knowledge in the industry is very helpful and left me feeling comfortable with my venture." – ASC Cornwall

Running a pub, restaurant or hospitality business often means facing extra hurdles when it comes to finance. Seasonal trading, tight margins and accounts that don't always tell the full story can make lenders cautious, even when the business itself is sound.

We've put together a guide covering why hospitality businesses can be harder to fund, the most common finance needs we see, and what actually makes the difference when it comes to securing the right deal.

Five different businesses, five different challenges, but one thing in common. These recent deal completions across the ASC network all required the right finance to move forward.

• £600,000 for a tenant to purchase a car repair garage and self-storage site.
• £356,250 to help a business expand into new premises and take its operations into a new region, opening up new trade networks.
• £195,000 for a tenant to purchase the trading premises of their café and car wash business, despite the need for a split title and a few minor credit issues.
• £114,052 portfolio refinance for a returning client to raise capital for further investment in residential property.
• £100,000 for a tenant to purchase the freehold premises of their takeaway business.

Whatever the ambition, we're here to help turn business aspirations into reality.

A bank saying no doesn't have to be the end of the road.

Short trading history, complex ownership, accounts that don't tell the full story, tight timeframes, or unusual security, none of these mean a business isn't lendable. They just mean the mainstream route isn't the right fit for that particular transaction.

In our latest blog, we look at five common reasons banks decline finance applications, and why the right broker can often still find a way through.

Nearly a fifth of UK commercial property loans are due to mature this year, £33 billion worth, in a market that looks very different to a few years ago.

Bank market share is down from 40% to 36%, while debt funds and alternative lenders have grown their share from 12% to 28%. More options exist for owners refinancing this year, but comparing them takes more work.

In our latest blog, we look at what this shift means for commercial property owners and why starting the refinancing process early makes a real difference.

ASC Devon recently helped secure £175,000 for the purchase of a freehold pub

Despite a short completion timeframe and poor accounts, we got it over the line and secured the funds needed to complete the purchase within the required timeframe.

This success story is a good reminder that a lender's rejection, or accounts that look tricky on paper, aren't always the end of the road. The right broker knows how to present the full picture. Cheers!

Your client's bank said no. That doesn't always mean the answer is no.

There are many reasons a mainstream bank might decline a case, such as a short trading history, a complex ownership structure, accounts that don't tell the full story, a tight completion timeframe, or security that doesn't fit a standard lending box. None of these reasons is an automatic dead end.

Swipe through for 5 common reasons banks say no, and where a specialist broker can often still find a way through.

If a client's finance application has been turned down, it's worth a conversation before writing it off.
