Bank Debt

Over the past few years there has been a considerable shift in emphasis and appetite within the banking community for property lending. The important ingredients that JCRSF brings to bear are up-to-date knowledge of the type of funding that is available and the relative pricing, coupled with the ability to prepare a full banking cashflow analysis.

We can offer a fully comprehensive service that covers both development and investment finance. This will include the preparation of a banking cashflow, drafting the heads of terms and subsequent negotiations with the potential lenders. Alternatively, we can provide advice on loan terms that have been sourced by our clients to ensure that they are in line with market comparables. Whilst the funding of investment portfolios has been our largest area of activity, we have seen a marked increase in the provision of development finance.

While the vast majority of JCRSF's work has, historically, been confined to the UK, the past year has seen a rapid increase in demand for the same service to be provided in Europe.
