Solicitors in Westminster, London
Finance
Lending against the cash flow generated by a property or against its increased value following development is the most traditional form of real estate finance. These transactions are usually classified as either investment or development transactions.
These could involve finance for commercial real estate such as offices, shops, industrial buildings - to be repaid from the rent received from tenants, or blocks of residential real estate – to be repaid from the sale of individual units.
Syndicated loans feature to enable the borrower to borrow larger amounts and to obtain best funding rates possible, as well as Special Purpose Vehicles allowing the borrower to secure and isolate assets, create and invest in joint ventures.
