Vendor Finance/Deferred Deposit Arrangements

Vendor finance and deferred deposit arrangements are structured funding solutions where the seller contributes to the transaction by deferring part of the purchase price. These arrangements are commonly used to bridge funding gaps, improve deal viability, and facilitate property or business transactions that may not otherwise proceed.

SynergiseUK connects you with specialist brokers experienced in structuring vendor finance and deferred deposit arrangements in line with lender requirements.

What Are Vendor Finance and Deferred Deposit Arrangements?

Vendor finance involves the seller agreeing to defer receipt of part of the purchase price, effectively acting as a secondary lender. A deferred deposit arrangement is a similar structure where the buyer pays only part of the deposit upfront, with the balance deferred under agreed terms.

These structures can be used alongside senior debt, bridging finance, or development funding, subject to lender approval.
