If you are looking to purchase an existing business, lenders will want to see accounts, business plan and forecasts. Also it is important to consider whether the retail property comes with a residential element. Lenders will usually consider the whole building. If the residential element is tenanted this will help but lenders can look at it on a speculative basis.
