Four steps, from owned asset to released capital

01
Asset Review

Tell us what assets you own, what you think they are worth and how much capital you want to release.

02
Valuation

We check the ownership position, asset age, condition and lender appetite before recommending a route.

03
Lender Match

We approach lenders that understand the asset type and can support the refinance purpose.

04
Capital Released

Once approved and documented, funds are released and your asset stays in use inside the business.

Release capital from equipment your business already owns without selling it

Asset refinance is a way for a business to raise funding against machinery, vehicles, plant or equipment it already owns. The asset stays in the business, but part of its value is turned back into working capital.

It can be useful when cash is tied up in productive equipment but the business needs funds for stock, tax, payroll pressure, deposits, refurbishment or a new opportunity. It is not magic money. The asset needs enough value, a clear ownership position and a lender that understands the asset type.

At Finding Capital, we compare refinance lenders across our panel and explain whether asset refinance, wider business refinance or another funding route is the cleaner fit.

Do you qualify for asset refinance?

Most refinance cases are clearer when the asset value and ownership position stack up.

UK Registered Business
Sole traders, partnerships, LLPs and limited companies can all be considered.
Owned assets with value
Plant, machinery, vehicles or equipment with a sensible resale value can support a stronger refinance case.
Clear ownership position
Lenders want to understand whether the asset is owned outright or what settlement figure applies if it is already funded.
Practical funding purpose
Working capital, tax, deposits, stock and growth projects can all be considered when the commercial reason is clear.

FAQs

Common asset refinance questions, answered in plain English

What assets can be refinanced?

Plant, machinery, vehicles, engineering kit, manufacturing assets and other business equipment can all be considered. Lenders look at age, condition, ownership and resale value.

Do I need to own the asset outright?

Clear ownership helps, but some already funded assets can still be reviewed. The settlement figure and remaining equity decide how much room there is to release cash.

What can I use the released funds for?

Common reasons include working capital, tax, stock, deposits, refurbishment, payroll pressure and growth projects. The lender will want the purpose to make commercial sense.

Is asset refinance better than a business loan?

Sometimes. Asset refinance can work well where the business has strong asset value. If the need is broader debt restructuring, a business refinance or unsecured loan may be cleaner.
