High-Value Mortgages

Tailored Solutions for £1 Million+ Mortgages

At Henry Dannell, we specialise in arranging mortgages in excess of £1 million. Whether acquiring a prime residence, refinancing to release equity, or building a high-value property portfolio, our advisers deliver solutions precisely matched to your goals.

With access to the entire market, from private banks and building societies to specialist and high-street lenders, we structure facilities that extend far beyond conventional lending criteria.

Please note: a mortgage is secured against your home. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage or any other debt secured on it. Mortgage deals may not be available, and lending is subject to individual circumstances and status.

Prime Residential Mortgages

For decades, Henry Dannell has secured property in the world’s most prestigious postcodes for private clients.

We protect every client’s identity, financial affairs, and personal details, building lasting relationships as part of their advisory circle. Clients turn to us for clear insight into market sentiment, enabling them to act with confidence, strengthen their position, and safeguard both lifestyle and legacy.

For international buyers, our role extends to structuring prime property finance across borders, aligning with tax and regulatory frameworks so each acquisition is seamless and secure.

Schedule An Introduction

Lombard Loans

Lombard lending allows clients to unlock liquidity without disturbing long-term investments.

For some, this means moving decisively on a prime residence. For others, it provides flexibility to meet tax obligations, fund a business venture, or support family priorities across borders.

Through our debt advisory, we design Lombard loans that provide financial agility while preserving investment strategies, ensuring wealth continues to grow even as immediate needs are met.

Explore Bespoke Solutions to Preserve Wealth

High Loan-to-Value (LTV) Mortgages

For many clients, preserving liquidity is as important as acquiring the right property. High loan-to-value mortgages provide the flexibility to retain capital for investment, business, or family commitments while still securing prime or super-prime residences.

We work with challenger banks, private banks and specialist lenders who understand this dynamic, structuring high LTV facilities that balance leverage with long-term wealth preservation.

High Net Worth Mortgages

While lenders may call it a ‘high net worth mortgage’, we see it simply as structuring finance for clients whose income or wealth is complex, international, or held in investments rather than what meets standard documentary lending requirements

Entrepreneurs, professionals, and global buyers turn to us to secure prime property while retaining liquidity for future opportunities. By working with niche lenders, we arrange mortgages that combine flexibility with discretion, ensuring capital continues to work while acquisitions proceed with confidence.

Discover Tailored Options for Complex Wealth

Large Mortgage Loans

Significant borrowing should not be mistaken for greater risk. We will always aim to secure lending through the high street, where, with the right presentation, it is often possible to achieve highly competitive terms.

However, when traditional routes are not suitable, we work closely with private banks that can take a more holistic view of complex income structures and long-term wealth strategies.

Our role is to secure financing at scale while preserving the privacy and confidence our clients expect.

Private Bank Mortgages

Private bank mortgages are designed for clients whose financial profiles require more than a conventional solution. These facilities may offer higher loan-to-value, larger loan sizes, and structures tailored to global or non-traditional income.

Through established relationships with leading private banks, we provide clients with access to lending defined by privacy, flexibility, and personal service. Tailored to secure prime and super-prime property, these solutions integrate seamlessly with broader wealth strategies.

Complex Mortgages

For clients with unconventional income or property outside standard criteria, the mortgage process can feel unnecessarily complicated.

At Henry Dannell, we take the complexity out of complex mortgages, presenting financial profiles in a way lenders respect and approve. Whether your wealth is international, entrepreneurial, or trust-based, we design solutions that secure the property you want without compromise.

By turning complexity into clarity, we deliver outcomes with precision, privacy, and confidence.

High-Value Properties & Financing

Acquiring a high-value property demands financing that matches both the scale of the purchase and the sophistication of the buyer.

We specialise in arranging mortgages for prime and super-prime residences, partnering with lenders who share our standards of discretion and excellence. Each facility is structured to preserve liquidity and complement wider wealth strategies, ensuring your next acquisition is seamless and secure.

Arrange Tailored Financing for Prime Residences

High-Profile Mortgages

Public figures require financing handled with absolute discretion. For athletes, entrepreneurs, and individuals in the public eye, income can be significant yet often complex and not always understood by mainstream lenders.

We specialise in structuring bespoke mortgage solutions for high-profile clients, safeguarding privacy at every stage while aligning finance with lifestyle and long-term wealth objectives. Through trusted relationships with private banks and specialist lenders, we ensure confidentiality, precision, and certainty of execution.

Why Choose Henry Dannell for High-Value Loans?

Securing a mortgage above £1 million demands more than a standard approach. High-street lenders often apply rigid criteria and income multiples, which can create challenges for those with complex or diversified wealth.

However, with the right adviser, what is often thought impossible on the high street can become achievable. Our team knows how to present complex financial profiles in a way that lenders understand and value, ensuring income, assets, and overall strength are represented accurately.

With 166 years of combined industry experience, the Henry Dannell team has a long-standing reputation for delivering expert advice to a wide range of clients, from professionals and business owners to ultra-high-net-worth, and high-net-worth individuals with sophisticated borrowing needs.

This depth of experience doesn’t just reflect our time in the market; it reflects the trust placed in us.

When the high street cannot assist, through long-standing relationships across private banks and specialist lenders, we negotiate bespoke terms and unlock opportunities rarely accessible through mainstream channels.

Frequently Asked Questions

The minimum requirement for a high-value mortgage can vary based on several factors, including your financial situation and the lender’s criteria. Typically, high-value mortgages are those exceeding £1 million, but some lenders may consider loans for less. Each lender has their own definition of what a high-value mortgage is and what loan parameters constitute a high-value mortgage. Your eligibility depends on factors like income, creditworthiness, and the specific property you’re interested in.

The application process for high-value mortgages shares similarities with regular mortgages but may involve more in-depth financial scrutiny. Lenders may require extensive documentation so you can expect a comprehensive review of your financial situation, often with a focus on income, assets, and a deep dive into the source of wealth.
