Property Finance mezzanine finance
Notwithstanding the Credit Crunch, some lenders are prepared to offer more than just senior debt terms for opportunities with short to medium term enhancement potential. Our analytical approach in presenting the income and capital growth characteristics of properties pays dividends when it comes to raising finance over and above that available by way of senior debt. Maximising the senior debt tranche at cheaper pricing and minimising any junior tranche at higher pricing can add considerable value. In depth knowledge of the lending parameters of different organisations is key to introducing stretch debt or mezzanine. Last Updated 07 February 2012
