An office in a private apartment and a mortgage

Every entrepreneur can apply for a mortgage for a company if he plans to separate a commercial part in his apartment for the purposes of his business. Therefore, it must take into account the preparation of more documents than in the case of a private mortgage application.

A mortgage loan for an entrepreneur and the conditions of banks

Time of running a business

Economic activity is one of the basic sources of income according to the retail offer of banks. However, in the case of running a small enterprise, banks are reluctant to grant high loans. This is due to uncertain profits and a lack of steady income. Before making a decision, the entrepreneur must consider how much of the premises he intends to allocate for business and determine the percentage of it. Individual companies have set different time limits for doing business.

The size of the area used for commercial purposes

Granting a mortgage for an entrepreneur also depends on the size of the area that will be used for commercial purposes.

Interest as a tax deductible cost

The interest on the mortgage loan can be included in the tax deductible costs if the purchased apartment is used for commercial purposes. They will be calculated on the basis of the size of the area designated for running a business.

If the entrepreneur has entered a private flat into the fixed assets register, the interest accrued by the day the flat is handed over to business increases the initial value of the fixed asset and constitutes tax deductible costs only through depreciation write-offs.
