Business Refinance Loans

Rangewell can help if you're looking to refinance business loans or need support with debt refinance.

Your business is always evolving, so your business finance arrangements should too. Business refinance can help you get more from your finance, reduce payments, release funds and consolidate debt.

Business refinance has proven vital for many businesses over the last couple of years of economic uncertainty. Brexit, the coronavirus pandemic and subsequent government lockdowns meant that even the strongest companies have struggled to stay afloat. 

Business loans allow organisations to fill the gaps left by government funding and grants. The retail and hospitality industries, in particular, have struggled to maintain cash flow during this time of financial pressure, and, unfortunately, many businesses did not survive the pandemic. 

With hope on the horizon, it might be time to reconsider your finance arrangements and determine if they work for you or if there is a better setup for your business.

What is business refinance?

Refinancing is when a loan is replaced with another, whether that's with the same lender or a new one. This doesn't have to refer to refinancing your entire portfolio; it can simply mean shifting from a short-term loan to a longer-term solution. Refinancing is a great way to consolidate business debt, reduce payments and spread costs over a longer period of time. 

How do you refinance business loans?

Refinancing is when you replace existing finance with a new product or combination of products. Typically, the new loan will pay off the current debt.

Perhaps your business plan has changed, or you can no longer meet the current loan terms... whatever your situation, there may be a more suitable finance product to help your business not just survive but thrive.

As the economy slowly recovers, many companies are ready to reassess their business debt. Refinancing is one of the most common ways to ensure your finance works for you rather than restricting you.

REAL EXAMPLES OF WHAT WE CAN DO

  • Set up a refinance plan that would reduce the outgoings of an organic farm by 30%

How debt refinance works

Finance can make or break your business, so it's important to understand how it works before deciding if refinancing is right for you, now or in the future. One of the biggest problems facing businesses is cash flow. High monthly payments, restrictive terms, and poor credit scores all cause problems for businesses. Sometimes, refinancing can help ease the pressures of business debt and improve your overall circumstances. 

Most businesses have more than one financial product, such as a commercial mortgage, a business credit card and possibly even a bridging loan for short-term support. Many business owners find themselves seeking new finance before assessing their existing arrangements.

Can you refinance a small business loan?

Business refinancing isn't restricted to big corporations. Any business with a loan could benefit from refinancing and debt consolidation, often moving away from a restrictive loan term to something better suited to your goals. In order to determine whether this is the right option for you, speak to an expert here at Rangewell. 

What are some potential cons to refinancing?

Refinancing means switching loans - potentially to a new lender or with your existing one. If you move to a new lender without doing the right research, you may not like working with them due to poor communication or other issues. This can be prevented by working with Rangewell first, as we can help you identify the right lender to suit your needs and set up any necessary meetings. 

Some refinancing agreements may be viewed as cons because they may lead to higher costs by extending the loan term. However, for businesses that need the flexibility of a longer term, this is a non-issue that can be mitigated with the support of a finance expert like our team on your side during the loan negotiations.

The benefits of business refinance

By changing from your current lender, you might find that you are presented with better terms for your commercial loan, or you might even qualify for a different kind of finance altogether, like Merchant Cash Advance, which provides consistent income without the heavy repayment terms. 

So, if you have a business loan with repayments that are proving too expensive because of a seasonal downturn, you may be able to refinance. A new loan might offer better rates over a longer time with smaller repayments.

Refinancing can mean improved cash flow and increased working capital and deliver a reduction in costs.

To find out whether refinancing is right for your business purposes, get in touch with Rangewell today. We're independent, making us well-placed to assess the whole market and provide impartial advice and secure finance that will help your business grow.

Why refinance your business?

Refinancing is sometimes falsely seen as a last resort or an action taken only by struggling businesses. In reality, there are many reasons why a business might choose to refinance. To discover whether refinancing is right for you, we recommend contacting us and speaking to one of our expert advisors about your specific situation.

In the meantime, let's look at some of the most common reasons to refinance.

Is refinancing a good idea?

Whether refinancing is a good idea or not is really dependent on your business circumstances. For example, if a development project is coming to an end, then it might be the ideal time to refinance in favour of a commercial mortgage and consolidate debts into one easy monthly payment. 

Generally, refinancing is a good idea if you've got a short-term loan in place or your business has grown or pivoted. Short-term loans are often expensive, so refinancing to a longer-term spreads the cost out and makes it less restrictive to businesses. If your business has grown, you can likely access better rates and refinancing will allow you to utilise any new value you've built in the business when renegotiating your new loan. 

To determine if now is the right time to refinance your business, speak to an expert at Rangewell. We'll take a look at your entire portfolio and help you to find and secure business refinancing that allows you to achieve your goals.

Refinance debt - reduced monthly commitment

Are you struggling to meet your current monthly payments? Or perhaps you simply find it difficult to manage cash flow or release profits to invest in other areas of your business. Having finance doesn't have to mean being strangled by high monthly payments.

Your existing finance arrangement may have been calculated based on circumstances that are no longer relevant. It might be that your projected income is lower because of the effects of the pandemic, or maybe you are now one of the many businesses facing higher utility bills. 

Whatever your circumstances, it's important to have finance that works for you - it should make your life easier, not harder. Refinancing can help reduce your monthly payments by improving your loan terms and/or spreading your payments across a longer period of time. 

Reduced interest costs

Lenders vary greatly in the interest they charge. Some types of lending, such as unsecured loans, may have relatively high rates of interest. By refinancing to a lower rate, and perhaps to a more suitable type of loan, it may be possible for your business to save on interest costs which can mean a reduction in monthly outgoings or help you pay off the principal - the amount you initially borrowed - faster.

Large, long-term loans can show the greatest potential savings if they are refinanced to a lower rate.

Changing the loan term

Extending the loan term can mean lower monthly payments and give you longer to repay the debt. Not only does this help to improve cash flow, but it might also open the doors to more finance opportunities to complement your existing setup.

However, you can also refinance your borrowing into a shorter term. This could reduce your overall repayments, and if you refinance to a better rate, it may even be possible to do it without increasing your monthly repayments. So, if being debt-free sooner is part of your business plan, then refinancing could help you get there. 

Consolidating debts 

Debt consolidation is one of the most common reasons to refinance your business. The more business debt you have, the harder it can be to grow. If you took out finance during the pandemic, then now might be a good time to revisit your financial commitments and determine whether the finance still meets your needs or if you are now eligible for different loan options. 

There is a wide range of ways to consolidate debt; it's not as simple as replacing several business loans with one new product. At Rangewell, we take a look at your full finance portfolio and determine what's working and what's not. Taking into account your business plan, current credit score and future plans, we can help you find out whether refinancing is right for you and how to best approach this process.

Pay off a commitment 

Short term loans can help get you out of a difficult situation or even bridge a gap between finance products. Some finance products, such as balloon loans and bridging loans used alongside a property purchase, need to be repaid by a specific date. However, if you cannot repay this within the timeframe, you risk significantly higher terms and even penalties. 

If you think it might take you a little longer to pay off a short term business loan, don't wait until it's too late to tell your current lender. Speak to Rangewell today about your existing commitments and we will lay out your options to make sure you have all the information available to make the best decision for your business. 

For example, if you have a business loan that helped you set up the business. Refinancing the amount you owe into long-term debt can be simpler once your business has established itself.

Refinancing debt

Maintain your current commitments 

Even if you don’t lower your interest rate or monthly payment, it can make sense to refinance. If you have variable rate funding for a commercial mortgage, for example, switching to a fixed-rate loan or by using Commercial Property Refinance may help you avoid increases.

Increase your borrowing 

If your business is doing well, you may want to increase your available funds to invest in new business assets or even a new venture. Rather than simply approaching existing lenders, it may be possible to refinance with another lender. They may be able to help you pay off your existing commitment and provide additional funds, leaving you with the additional funds you need and a single monthly repayment. 

Change your loan type 

Changing circumstances may make one source of finance less suitable. So, you might have a loan that could be replaced with a Cash Advance based on your future sales or by an Invoice Finance arrangement. You could even use Asset Refinance to free up cash to use elsewhere in your business.

Is refinancing for you?

Refinancing is a very technical process and requires the expertise and knowledge of industry experts to get it right. You don't want to risk refinancing to the wrong product and ending up in a worse situation than where you began. For that reason, we highly recommend seeking advice to determine whether refinancing is for you.

If you have existing debt and are struggling to meet monthly repayments, or took out finance or less favourable terms to get you through the pandemic, then it's worth talking to Rangewell about refinance. So, before you make a big lending decision or start a new loan application, get in touch with Rangewell's team of independent advisors today.
