Debt Advisory

We advise experienced developers and sponsors on raising debt for residential, living, hospitality and commercial real estate across the UK.

Before advising, we raised debt as principals. Between us, Patrick and Ben have negotiated a substantial volume of development and investment finance on our own schemes, as the borrower. That experience shapes how we advise. We understand what lenders need to see, and we understand what the sponsor has to live with once the loan is signed.

We arrange:

• Senior and stretch senior development finance

• Whole loans

• Mezzanine finance

• Investment and refinancing facilities

Because we also raise joint venture equity, we can consider the debt and the equity together, so the capital structure works as a whole.

Our role is to prepare the opportunity properly, approach a small number of well-chosen lenders, and negotiate the terms that matter through to completion. We work with UK and international banks, debt funds and specialist lenders.

We work with sponsors who have a proven track record, a disciplined approach to leverage and a professional attitude to lender relationships. We act exclusively for developers and sponsors and do not provide regulated investment advice.
