    Commercial mortgage broker - any recommendations ?

    Thanks Mark - I do still lurk about here sometimes! Commercial mortgage would be the best option I reckon from the info given, but HSBC and Barclays aren't going to be interested at this level, as you have already discovered. A specialist lender is what you would need really - whoever gave the...

    How to end a business car lease early

    Similar structure is also possible on HP, but then I suppose your name suggests you would be incentivised to extol the virtues of leasing over all other options. I've not given any advice, but my comments definitely couldn't be what you are referring to with your initial question (?)

    How to end a business car lease early

    To put it bluntly, the leasing co have you by the short and curlies. This is exactly why I almost always advise HP as a funding solution rather than a lease. As its a limited co its unregulated so the lender can do whatever the heck they want when you request a settlement, and if they could get...

    See if you can get him to turn that energy and research to something less wildly volatile. Currency trading has almost the same penchant for separating Joe Bloggs from his hard-earned, but with some research and a logical approach there is some money to be made maybe. Then there's the stock...

    It might be coincedence, but today I've had two unsolicited phone calls from Bitcoin-related scammer types. I wouldn't be surprised if someone was looking at this thread and farming phone numbers from it, just FYI everyone who has commented.

    buying a new van for sole trader

    Hey Casper, welcome to UKBF. Most second hand vans will also have VAT, and whichever way you swing it that VAT will need paid. You will occasionally find vans being sold privately by other folk who aren't VAT registered and then they can't charge VAT, but you will often find the price of those...

    It irks a little that the common parlance of "cryptocurrency" is so widely accepted. Its not a currency, its a tradeable commodity. Actually something like CryptoCom could be a fresh marketing approach for the fools.

    We've all done our own research - we're not idiots. You're trying to foist your research on us and your opinion of this completely farcical "market" while in the same breath saying we should DYOR? We have, and the general consensus here is that Bitcoin is nonsense. You would know that if you had...

    Becoming a Mortgage Broker Advice Wanted

    Not only risking a complaint but risking revocation of permissions which would spell the end of trading.... It irks me that brokers of all sorts have this largely unearned reputation of putting commission before all other things! Funny the number of times I've had conversations over the last...

    Missleading website - Crafty or should be closed down?

    When a business is registered, I'm sure there is a thing about permissable names....can't suggest or imply that you're something you're not basically. I seem to remember there's a particular rule about your business name can't imply that you are connected to government. This suggests that...

    Can I Lease a Van I Own to My Own LTD Co?

    The correct way to go about it is to ask the finance company to do a "novation", which transfers the debt to the limited co. All depends on who the finance co is and whether they're willing to do that or not.
