Mike Healy, Head of Commercial at CHL, commented:

“In light of the recent announcement by Base Commercial that it is temporarily withdrawing from the market, CHL Commercial is in a position to help those brokers looking to place commercial cases. Base will be honouring its existing pipeline but, for those brokers who do not have offers for their clients, CHL is open for business and willing to consider cases to help brokers out in the current circumstances. CHL operates in a similar market to Base and our dedicated team is available to help those advisers who may be looking for commercial client solutions at this time. It is vital that brokers have access to a range of competitive lenders and products and we hope that Base is able to return to the market at some point in the future.”

CHL offer a range of products suitable for commercial clients including commercial buy-to-let, commercial owner-occupier and semi-commercial properties, for example, a shop or office with residential buy-to-lets above.
