About the York market
York in context
Geographically, York sits in North Yorkshire (Yorkshire & Humber), connected by the A1(M), A64 and with the YO1, YO10, YO24 postcode footprint covering most of the urban core. Student demand drives HMO and PBSA-adjacent investment. Period stock dominates the lettable market, and operators with strong management track record can stretch leverage further than first-time landlords.

York FAQs
Common questions about commercial mortgages in York
Do you handle semi-commercial?+
Yes — semi-commercial is one of our most common transaction types in York and across a university city.
Are 25-year terms available?+
Yes — both 20- and 25-year amortising terms are common. Some lenders go to 30 years on residential-investment commercial.
Will the bank value the property low?+
Downvaluations happen. We pre-screen with lenders likely to instruct local North Yorkshire valuers familiar with York comparables to reduce that risk.
Do you arrange commercial in Leeds?+
Yes — Leeds (25 miles from York) sits inside our normal coverage, as does the broader North Yorkshire market.
How much can I borrow on a York commercial mortgage?+
Typically 65–75% LTV for investment, often higher for owner-occupied. Loan size from around £150k upwards across North Yorkshire.
What about lease length?+
Short unexpired leases compress LTV and shorten loan term. Long FRI leases support full leverage. We'll talk through your lease profile early.
