# Carlton Business Finance
Carlton Business Finance is a Birmingham-based commercial mortgage broker specialising in complex lending solutions for property investors and business owners across the UK. Established in 1990 by Principal Bob Bennett, the firm has spent over three decades building strong relationships with major commercial lenders, enabling them to source competitive finance for clients that traditional banks might overlook.
The company serves diverse sectors including leisure venues (pubs and hotels), care homes, industrial properties, retail spaces, offices, warehouses, professional practices, farms and golf courses. They distinguish themselves through their dual expertise: a core commercial mortgage team handling standard business property purchases, and a specialist development finance division (Carlton Property Finance) focused on both residential and commercial development projects.
What sets Carlton Business Finance apart is their broker model—they represent clients' interests rather than pushing proprietary products. As founder members of the National Association of Commercial Finance Brokers since 1992 and FCA-regulated (registration 733401), they maintain professional standards and access to a wide lender network. Their willingness to tackle development finance and bridging solutions—particularly useful for time-sensitive acquisitions or equity release—demonstrates range beyond basic mortgages.
The emphasis on same-day quotations and personal service reflects their commitment to speed and responsiveness. Rather than generic solutions, they position themselves as specialists who understand sector-specific lending challenges, whether securing finance for a care home acquisition or bridging a property purchase gap.
