Propel Property Finance distinguishes itself through its deep market insights and dedication to remaining current with the latest lender criteria and product offerings.
With a network of over 200 lenders spanning both traditional and alternative funding channels, we offer unparalleled access to diverse funding sources.
We specialize in the following areas:
Senior Debt
Mezzanine Finance
Bridging Finance
Equity
The senior debt space is characterized by intense competition and a multitude of players, who actively finance development and investment opportunities spanning across various real estate assets. Consequently, securing senior debt is often more accessible, as these lenders typically hold the first charge on projects and are prioritized for repayment. We leverage our market knowledge and strong industry connections to effectively structure proposals with the most suitable lenders. Our extensive and growing network includes local council, well-established high-street banks, innovative challenger banks, niche boutique lenders, influential private equity firms, insurance companies and real estate funds.
Mezzanine finance, also known as "junior" debt, is often more challenging to secure than senior funding. Mezzanine debt holds a subordinate position to senior debt, leading to higher rates compared to senior debt. Junior debt supplements senior debt to increase the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio, enabling developers to diversify their equity across a wider range of projects. The mezzanine market primarily attracts funding from high-net-worth individuals who operate through funds, aiming to generate returns on their equity. These investors possess an understanding of the risk-adjusted returns associated with second charge lending and can facilitate higher leverage compared to senior debt on the same assets.
Bridging finance, serves as an optimal solution for needs such as auction finance or when developers require funding to navigate planning processes or execute improvement schemes. A common exit strategy for a bridging loan involves refinancing it onto a development facility or an investment facility. We work with bridging finance providers in scenarios where clients require rapid financing, adaptability, or additional time. We maintain access to prominent lenders operating in this domain, alongside a diverse pool of alternative funders. This includes specialist bridging funds, boutique lenders, high net worth individuals and private equity funds.
Equity funding, also known as "joint venture" finance, is often the most difficult type of funding to secure. The return on investment for an equity investor is determined by the level of security and priority of repayment. Typically, investors receive payment once all other lenders have been repaid and, in return, they participate in a share of the profits. This highlights the importance of the project team as well as the underlying asset for the investor. Developers frequently leverage equity partners to diversify their equity across multiple projects and increase the scale of their typical investments. Equity serves as a catalyst for expanding companies.
