The client had the option to purchase a leasehold hotel in prime London. They only had 30 days left on their option and they were short of the capital required to purchase the asset and to then renovate the building upon acquisition. They had been turned down by many other lenders already due to the hotel being a short lease.

We provided not only the loan but equity finance as well. The team worked with the client to understand their business and evaluated worse case scenarios of trading to ensure the loan could be serviced and that the level of risk was reduced to a satisfactory level.

The client had to raise funds to buy out an existing shareholder and also to provide working capital for expansion of the business.

We worked with the client to develop a business plan and clear path forward. A structure and system for the business was established and implemented. The solution required a staged funding solution which comprised of both debt and equity.

The client had a funding shortfall on a super prime development consisting of 9 units.

We worked with the client to find a solution to mitigate against the high LTV. The solution we arrived at consisted of debt with security of a third charge and a creative re-structure to reduce the overall LTV.

The client had a need to raise finance quickly across a portfolio of 70+ properties. The majority of which had first charge mortgages with various different lenders at high LTV’s.

We worked with the client to analyse their entire portfolio looking at both rental and capital values and completed a loan whereby the security was cross-collateralised against various assets across different geographic locations in the UK. We also extended terms and provided further finance to the borrower to assist repayment after Covid negatively impacted the portfolio in the short term.

The client had recently acquired some land but needed funds to undergo improvements so he could run a multitude of publicly attended events such as car boot sales, markets, antique fairs. This was a time sensitive loan as the business was seasonal and funding was needed within weeks.

After visiting the site and meeting the owner we backed the business and the individual and provided the financing required within the time frame required.

The business needed restructuring so it could raise finance and continue to develop. Changes were needed at board level and shareholdings needed adjusting to align everyone going forward.

We provided consultancy services to assist the business in its restructure and are still involved to this day as equity participants.
