Thank you — we've got it.
One of our team will call you shortly to talk through your options.
Two specialisms, one whole-of-market reach.
We lead with unsecured business loans and bridging finance — and can structure across the full range of commercial lending when your needs call for it.
Unsecured business loans
Working capital, consolidation and cash-flow funding for trading limited companies — arranged without tying up your assets.
Bridging finance
Short-term, fast-moving property funding for when opportunity or timing won't wait for a traditional lender.
Award-winning, and recognised nationally.
Independently celebrated by the UK's leading business lenders — and chosen to represent female brokers on the national stage.
Bankers who pick up the phone.
A brokerage built on relationships and whole-of-market knowledge — not a call-centre pushing one product.
One dedicated broker, start to finish
A single point of contact and support team who own your case from the first call to funds released — no being passed around.
People who understand your deal
You deal directly with experienced brokers who get how your deal is structured — you're never explaining it to someone who doesn't.
Same-day decisions in principle
Where the deal allows, we move fast to get you a decision in principle so you know where you stand.
35+ years at the table
Decades of commercial banking experience behind every recommendation.
An informed choice
Whole-of-market lenders covering working capital, short, medium and long-term needs — so you can weigh the right options.
Transparent throughout
Straight-talking and professionally focused, so you always know where you stand.
L B Finance Solutions was founded by Leanne Barry, who brings over 35 years of commercial banking and brokering experience to every case. Personally named Fleximize Broker of the Year (2016) and Spotcap Female Broker of the Year (2018), she was also chosen by Funding Circle to represent female UK brokers for International Women's Day 2025.
She built the firm on one belief: business owners deserve a broker who understands their deal — and stays with them from first enquiry to funds released.

The questions we're asked most.
Often, yes. Because we work across the whole market, we can look beyond high-street criteria at lenders who consider CCJs, defaults, arrears, newer trading histories and inconsistent profits. We'll tell you honestly where you stand and which routes are realistic.
It depends on your turnover, trading history and the type of funding. We compare options across our lender panel and set out the amounts and costs clearly, so you can make an informed choice before committing to anything.
Share a few details, we call you to understand the requirement, then we source and present suitable options. Bridging can move quickly when timing is critical; other facilities vary by lender. We keep you updated at every step.
Let's find the funding that fits.
A short conversation is all it takes to understand your options — with no obligation to proceed.
