The ambition

We compared both Hire Purchase and Finance Lease options, advising that a Finance Lease was the more strategic solution. This allowed the business to spread the VAT across the agreement, reduce the upfront cash requirement, and keep valuable liquidity available for growth

How the finance was structured

Compared HP and Finance Lease quotes, demonstrating the advantages of a finance lease, which enabled the business to spread the VAT across the term, rather than expensing a large amount immediately.

What it made possible

The business successfully acquired the Land Rover Defender 110 Hard Top within 5 days, adding a vital commercial vehicle without putting pressure on cash flow. The finance structure supported both their immediate operational needs and their longer-term growth plans.

  1. STEP 1

    A conversation with a broker

    You talk to a real Sorbus broker about the business, the purpose and what is affordable. No application at this stage.

  2. STEP 2

    Credit placement

    If you choose to go further, we prepare the case and decide which lenders on our panel of 150+ are worth approaching.

  3. STEP 3

    Lender assessment

    The lender, not Sorbus, underwrites and makes the credit decision. Approval is never guaranteed.

  4. STEP 4

    Documentation

    If a lender offers terms and you accept, we help coordinate agreements and payout paperwork with you.

Every step after the first is optional. You can stop after the conversation. Sorbus is a broker, not a lender.
