In short

The business needed to refinance HMRC liabilities and other short-term debts while new project income was due to land later. The £70,000 facility completed, clearing the pressure of the HMRC and short-term debts while the business waited for its project income.

  1. The requirement

    The business needed to refinance HMRC liabilities and other short-term debts while new project income was due to land later.

  2. The challenge

    Unsecured routes had not worked. The business needed a solution that improved its cash flow rather than adding another short-term repayment on top.

  3. The structure

    We looked at the existing liabilities as a whole and structured new finance around improving the cash-flow position, consolidating HMRC and short-term debts into one facility.

  4. The result

    The £70,000 facility completed, clearing the pressure of the HMRC and short-term debts while the business waited for its project income.

What our clients say

We had already approached other finance companies who weren’t able to help. From our first conversation to everything being completed took around 7 days, and they kept us informed throughout. If you’ve struggled to get help elsewhere, I would absolutely recommend giving them a call.

FAQs

Questions about this case

How do lenders look at a construction business?
They look at the order book, how projects are paid and the cash committed to labour and materials before payment arrives. Options include working capital, invoice finance and tax funding. See construction finance.
Can a business borrow to pay a VAT or tax bill?
Often, yes. VAT, corporation tax and other HMRC liabilities can be spread with a dedicated tax funding facility, so the bill is paid on time without draining working capital. Subject to status. See HMRC and tax funding.
Is this a real transaction?
Yes. Every case study on this site is a transaction we arranged and saw through to completion. Client details are anonymised, and we only publish what we can verify: we never invent figures, rates or outcomes.
Do you lend the money yourselves?
No. Smart Funding Solutions is a credit broker, not a lender. We search a panel of 300+ lenders, present your case to the ones whose criteria fit, and manage the application through to completion. The lender makes the final decision and all finance is subject to status.
What does it cost to talk to you?
It is free to enquire and there is no obligation. Any broker fee is disclosed separately before you proceed, and there is no obligation to accept an offer.
