Finspire Finance completed a £171,000 bridging loan in six business days to help a client buy an industrial estate in Dudley, after their original lender withdrew just before completion.
The deal was introduced to Finspire Finance on 16th September 2025, with a deadline of 24th September.
The client faced losing a 10% deposit and the deal falling through.
The brokerage structured the loan and sourced funds quickly.
Finspire Finance worked closely with specialist lender Mercantile Trust to get funds in place before the deadline, ensuring the purchase went ahead.
Blake Bull, director at Finspire Finance, said: “This was a record-speed bridge for a commercial property.
“From first enquiry to drawdown, the deal was completed in just six working days.
“When time is tight, having the right broker makes all the difference.”
This is the first stage of the client’s plan.
Finspire Finance is now supporting the borrower to formalise and improve tenancy agreements, unlock value from vacant land on the estate, and move to a commercial mortgage in the coming months.
