Lewis Booker
Sorbus Finance — Chesterfield, Derbyshire
A supercar, a private aircraft, a luxury yacht, a prestige lodge — most lenders decline assets like these not because the buyer lacks the means, but because they lack the knowledge to value what they'd be lending against. Lewis's role is to find the lenders who do.
Lewis specialises in performance and prestige finance across vehicles, aviation, marine, and leisure assets — the full spectrum of high-value lifestyle and business assets where standard lending criteria simply don't apply. He works with private clients and businesses alike, sourcing finance from specialist funders whose appetite and expertise match the assets others can't place. Whether it's a collection of classic cars, a twin-engine aircraft, or a high-spec yacht, Lewis builds the case and finds the right lender.
Alongside prestige and leisure assets, Lewis also arranges commercial finance — business loans, working capital, and asset-backed funding for clients who want a single point of contact for their personal and business finance needs.
Areas of expertise
Lewis arranges finance for non-standard, high-value, and specialist assets where mainstream lenders lack the appetite or knowledge to underwrite — finding solutions where others find obstacles.
Performance & Prestige Vehicles
Supercars, performance cars, classic vehicles, and prestige marques — specialist HP and finance lease with lenders who understand true market values, not book values.
Aviation Finance
Private aircraft, light sport aircraft, and turboprop finance for individuals and businesses — working with aviation-specialist lenders who can underwrite complex airframe assets.
Marine & Leisure Craft
Yachts, motorboats, RIBs, and high-value leisure craft finance — where residual values and insurance requirements demand a specialist broker rather than a generalist lender.
Leisure & Lifestyle Assets
Holiday lodges, park homes, and high-value leisure assets where standard lending criteria do not apply and a specialist lender relationship is essential.
Prestige & Specialist Assets
Any high-value or non-standard asset — from classic car collections to rare equipment — where mainstream lenders step back and specialist placement is required.
Business Funding
Commercial finance solutions running alongside asset purchases — structured business loans, cashflow facilities, and working capital products for asset-backed businesses.
Career background
A specialist in high-value and non-standard asset finance, with a focus on the niche lender relationships that determine outcomes for unusual assets.
Joined Sorbus Finance to build its performance, prestige, and lifestyle asset finance proposition. Works with clients across the full spectrum of high-value personal and business assets — from supercars and classic vehicles to private aircraft, marine craft, leisure assets, and specialist business funding. Manages relationships with niche funders whose appetite for non-standard assets sets them apart from mainstream lenders.
Developed a thorough understanding of specialist and high-value asset finance, residual value assessment, and the lending criteria that determine whether unusual assets get funded — or don't. Joined Sorbus Finance from university, bringing a fresh approach to a sector where lender knowledge and relationships are everything.

"A lender that says no to a supercar, a private aircraft, or a luxury yacht isn't saying no to the deal — they're saying they don't know how to value it. My job is to find the ones who do.
