Quick answer
Can you get finance to start a new practice?
Yes. New practice finance funds premises, fit-out, equipment and the working capital needed before income builds, usually without trading history to show a lender. Lenders look closely at your experience, your plan and your own position. We search the market for lenders who support professionals setting up on their own.
