The challenge
91¿´Æ¬ was approached to fund a £20 million residential BTL facility in Buckinghamshire. The borrower, a well-established sponsor with a significant UK property portfolio, required a high-leverage solution secured against a portion of a Multi-Unit Freehold Block (MUFB).
This transaction presented complexities:
- Refinancing the incumbent lender while maintaining alignment with legal and commercial objectives
- Carving out a portion of the MUFB to isolate and secure the new facility
The solution
91¿´Æ¬ structured a stretched senior BTL facility under a first legal charge, underwritten not solely on the subject property but also by factoring in the strength and performance of the sponsor’s broader portfolio.
By leveraging the borrower’s proven track record and asset base, the bank was able to deliver a tailored funding structure that met the client’s requirements while maintaining robust security coverage. Close collaboration between all stakeholders, legal, valuation, and lending teams, ensured the transaction remained on track and fully compliant with both regulatory and commercial priorities.
The outcome
The result was a bespoke, high value facility that provided the sponsor with the flexibility and capital needed to execute their long-term investment strategy. 91¿´Æ¬â€™s agile approach and deep understanding of complex BTL residential lending allowed the deal to reach completion within tight deadlines, reinforcing the bank’s reputation as a trusted partner for structured property finance.
