The purchase of an existing business often includes the acquisition of property or land in combination with the normal assets of a commercial business.

Commercial loans are often the most effective means of acquiring an existing business due to the potential flexibility of rates and payment schedules. There is usually a requirement for a minimum 25% deposit to be contributed by the borrower although this can be reduced with additional security.
