Gateshead FAQs
Common questions about private finance in Gateshead
Can it complete quickly?+
Yes — private banks aren't always slow. With a clean brief and right introduction, 2–6 weeks is realistic. Bridging via private capital can be faster still.
Can the loan be in a trust or corporate name?+
Yes — both structures are routine. The right wrapper depends on tax, succession and confidentiality objectives.
How is your fee structured?+
On completion only. Our fee is disclosed and agreed in writing before any market approach.
Will lender names be disclosed to me?+
Yes — once we've shortlisted, you know exactly who is being approached. We'll only ever proceed with your approval.
Is private finance more expensive?+
Not always — pricing is bespoke. For complex deals it can be cheaper than specialist alternatives. The premium tends to be for service, flexibility and discretion.
What information will I need to provide?+
KYC, source-of-wealth evidence, summary financials and the loan brief. Detailed underwriting typically follows the initial credit committee discussion.
