Commercial Property Finance: Fast, Flexible Funding for Real Estate Projects
In a fast-moving property market, timing is everything. Whether you’re acquiring land, bridging a purchase, or building a multi-unit development, you need funding that matches the pace and complexity of your project.
At Wigmore Trading, we support businesses, investors, and developers across Africa by facilitating access to commercial acceptances, bridging loans, and property development finance loans. We work closely with trusted lenders to help you move quickly on deals and maintain momentum through every stage of a project.
1. Commercial Acceptances: Short-Term Credit for Commercial Deals
Commercial acceptances are a short-term credit instrument that allows a business to delay payment on a commercial transaction. These are often used in real estate transactions, equipment procurement, or trade deals where timing and cash flow alignment are critical.
Key Features:
- Short-term, flexible credit (typically 30–180 days)
- Enables businesses to secure deals while awaiting cash inflow
- Can be used to finance commercial property purchases, land acquisitions, or equipment
Ideal for: Developers and property investors who need to move fast on purchases or bridge gaps between purchase and long-term finance.
2. Bridging Loans: Fast Finance for Time-Sensitive Opportunities
Bridging loans are short-term funding solutions used to “bridge” the gap between buying a property and securing longer-term finance or completing a sale. These loans are designed to be fast and flexible, allowing you to act on market opportunities without delay.
Key Features:
- Fast approval and funding (as little as a few days)
- Loan terms from 3 to 18 months
- Secured against property or other assets
- Interest can be rolled up or paid monthly
- Available for both residential and commercial properties
Ideal for:
- Property investors purchasing at auction
- Businesses waiting for a sale or refinance to complete
- Developers needing to complete land acquisition before planning approval
Wigmore Trading connects clients with lenders who understand the local market and are ready to move quickly on deals across Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, and beyond.
3. Property Development Finance Loans
Whether you’re building new units or refurbishing existing structures, property development finance gives you the capital you need to fund the construction phase of your project.
Key Features:
- Structured in stages (land purchase, construction, completion)
- Loan amounts based on Gross Development Value (GDV)
- Interest-only during construction term
- Can be tailored for residential, commercial, or mixed-use projects
Ideal for:
- Residential or commercial property developers
- Joint ventures and partnerships
- Phased housing estates, retail parks, or industrial developments
At Wigmore Trading, we work with lenders who offer ground-up development finance, light and heavy refurbishment loans, and exit finance—helping you manage your funding lifecycle from acquisition through to sale or refinancing.
