Bridging Loans in Mayfair
Can you arrange bridging finance on Mayfair and prime central London property?
Yes. Berkeley Credit arranges bridging loans secured on high-value property across Mayfair, Belgravia, Knightsbridge and the wider prime central London market. We are based in Mayfair ourselves, at 27 Hill Street, and we lend on the asset and the exit rather than an affordability checklist, from £50,000 to £25,000,000, for business and investment purposes, with a same-day decision.
Why prime central London needs a specialist lender
Prime central London is its own market. Values are high, buyers are frequently international, assets are often held through companies or offshore structures, and the best opportunities move quickly. Mainstream lenders tend to be slow and template-driven with exactly these features, large loan sizes, overseas borrowers and complex ownership, so a sound prime London deal can stall for reasons that have nothing to do with its quality.
How we lend on prime London assets
We are an asset-led, not affordability-led, lender. We look first at the security, a desirable prime London asset that is realistically saleable within a 180-day window, and then at the exit, whether that is a sale, a refinance onto longer-term finance, or business proceeds.
We are comfortable with high values, international buyers and corporate or offshore ownership, taking a legal charge over the property supported by personal, corporate or debenture guarantees as appropriate. Every case is assessed on its own merits and is subject to underwriting.
