The transaction enabled Cayuga Homes to sell some of the 33 apartments in the development with no early repayment charges, retain the rest, and release some equity.

The five-year commercial investment loan was agreed on a 20-year amortisation profile.

The funding enabled the client to refinance its original development facility while allowing time to execute a dual-track strategy of unit sales and long-term lettings.

The facility supports the acquisition of the freehold of the building, conversion and construction costs, S106 and CIL liabilities, professional fees, interest and a 4-month VAT...

The facility was offered at 9% and completed in three business days

Exit will be achieved through the sale of all six units

Both homes are anticipated to open in early 2026 and will deliver 169 beds to an area experiencing a chronic shortfall of high-quality, new purpose-built care homes.

The loan, at 70% LTV over six months, enables the consolidation of three investment properties into a single corporate structure.

The client, a large developer in Exeter, has refurbished an old semi-commercial building into 28 luxury flats with a GDV of £7m.

This latest deal follows the completion of a second charge bridge for a retirement home in Cyprus earlier this month
