Commercial mortgages on Park Royal industrial units

A commercial mortgage is the core way to buy or refinance an industrial unit in Park Royal. For investors, lenders size the loan against the rent: typically up to around 65 to 70 percent loan to value, tested so the net rental income covers the interest with a clear margin, with the tenancy schedule, the estimated rental value and the re-letting depth of the Park Royal market all part of the assessment. For owner-occupiers buying their own premises the loan is underwritten on the trading business instead, its accounts and its debt service cover, and can reach around 70 to 80 percent for established firms. Terms run from 5 to 25 years. We place each facility with the lender that prices Park Royal industrial property best across Greater London.

Warehouses, multi-let estates and trade counters across Greater London

Each property type is underwritten differently. We arrange finance for distribution and logistics warehouses, multi-let industrial estates, trade counters, workshops and light industrial units, hybrid and flex space, urban and last-mile logistics and open storage yards in Park Royal and across Greater London. A let distribution warehouse on a long lease to a single covenant, a fully let estate of small units with dozens of SME tenancies, and a vacant workshop bought at auction are credit-assessed in very different ways, and knowing which lender backs each format is the work we do before a deal reaches credit. Multi-let estates carry short leases that re-gear to market quickly, which lenders read as reversionary income, while distribution sheds and trade counters lean on the covenant strength and unexpired term of the tenant.

Property types we fund

How much you can borrow against Park Royal industrial property

On an industrial investment in Park Royal, a commercial mortgage usually reaches around 65 to 70 percent of value, so you would budget for equity of roughly a third of the price plus stamp duty and costs. The figure is driven by the quality of the income, the tenants, the unexpired lease terms and the condition of the unit, not the postcode. Vacant or part-let property is funded differently: bridging finance secures an auction purchase or a unit awaiting letting, typically to around 70 to 75 percent of value from around 0.75 percent per month, and development or refurbishment finance funds works to around 65 to 75 percent of cost, with mezzanine stretching the stack where the scheme supports it. Interest rates depend on the lender, the leverage and the income profile, so we quote them deal by deal rather than as a headline rate. We size the right facility, rate and equity requirement for your Park Royal deal.

The Greater London industrial and logistics market

Park Royal is a prime industrial catchment within Greater London. Dense occupier demand, constrained land supply and competition from last-mile and trade users support strong rents on well-let estates, and lenders compete hardest for stabilised multi-let income here. Vacant or secondary units are funded on more cautious terms, with the business plan and the borrower doing the work.

London is the UK's tightest and most expensive industrial market, defined by an acute scarcity of urban, last-mile and multi-let space serving a dense and affluent consumer base.

Structural land constraints and very limited speculative supply underpin the strongest near-term rental-growth forecast of any region, and investor appetite for last-mile multi-let assets continues to strengthen.

Market commentary and figures for Greater London are drawn from Knight Frank (UK Logistics Market Dashboard, Jan 2026); Newmark (Gerald Eve) (UK Prime Logistics, Q4 2024); Colliers (Industrial and Logistics Rents Maps H2 2025, Jun 2025).

Sources and methodology

Industrial and logistics market figures are published nationally or regionally, not per town, so the rents, vacancy and yields on this page are presented as context for a Park Royal appraisal and attributed to their sources (Newmark (Gerald Eve), UK Prime Logistics; Knight Frank, UK Logistics Market Dashboard; CBRE, UK Logistics Q4 2025). Town-level facts are different: road access, the named estates, the planning authority, the landlords present are genuinely local and sourced. We do not publish a Park Royal-specific rent or yield as if it were measured. Nationally, UK big-box logistics take-up reached 25.6m sq ft in 2025 (CBRE, UK Logistics Q4 2025, 2025).

FAQ

Industrial and logistics finance in Park Royal: common questions

Can you get a mortgage on an industrial unit in Park Royal?

We arrange them for owner-occupiers buying their own premises, underwritten on the trading business, and for investors buying let units or estates, underwritten on the rent, typically to around 65 to 70 percent loan to value, and we place each one with a lender that backs the sector.

How much deposit do I need to buy an industrial unit in Park Royal?

Established owner-occupiers can often reach around 70 to 80 percent against their own premises. A vacant or short-income unit is funded on more cautious terms, often via a bridge first.

What are Park Royal industrial finance rates and terms?
