The 24-month loan at 75% loan to value allows the borrower to resolve a complex inter-creditor situation and complete their marketing and sale of the Abbey Wall scheme in South West London. The loan is secured against the partly sold 66-apartment new-build residential block, which includes a ground-floor commercial unit.
Charlie Job, associate at HREF, said: “This loan gives our client time and flexibility to sell down the scheme and deliver vital housing supply in the local area. They have developed a high-quality project that is already partly sold, demonstrating strong local demand, and we expect this to continue as residential transaction volumes stabilise.”
Jeremy Scott, director of developer IndigoScott, said: “Hilco were able to quickly grasp the complexity of the case and provided an innovative and creative funding structure. Their communication was excellent and they remained closely engaged and supportive throughout the transaction.”
The transaction was introduced by RockCap director Alex Lundberg, with valuations undertaken by Gerald Eve LLP, and Daniel Fireman of Gunnercooke leading the legal due diligence for HREF.
