Yes - many lenders will accept residential property (including your home) as security for a business loan. However, this does mean your home is at risk if you cannot repay the loan, so it's important to consider this carefully.
Most secured business lenders will lend up to 70-75% of the property's value. Specialist lenders may go higher in certain cases. The LTV available depends on the property type, location, and your overall financial profile.
Secured loans require property valuation and legal work, which typically adds 3-6 weeks to the process. However, for second charges on existing properties with known values, some lenders can move faster - often within 2-3 weeks.
