– Charlie Job – HREF
Specialist bridge lender Hilco Real Estate Finance has announced that it has provided a £14.2m development exit loan to Leeds-based real estate investor & developer, Torsion Group.
The 12-month loan at 74% net loan to value will provide the group’s development arm, Torsion Developments, with additional time to sell the remaining units in their 364-unit Pheonix residential scheme in Leeds.
“This development exit loan to Torsion is a perfect example of transitional capital, and demonstrates our ability to lend swiftly without any constraints on funding on any deal that makes sense,” explained Charlie Job, associate at HREF, “This transaction also shows our appetite for development exit loans and the deliverability of our funding, and we look forward to transacting on further developments with Torsion Group.”
The transaction was introduced by Nick Swerner of GLPG, who commented: “Working with our client and Hilco on this deal was highly enjoyable, as we had two motivated partners to conclude the transaction, with Hilco proving to be a reliable capital partner, able to deliver swiftly on their own decision to lend without any third party involvement.
Valuations were undertaken by Gerald Eve LLP, and legal due diligence and transactional support were carried out for HREF by Clarion Solicitors led by Ben Slack and Marie Pugh.
