“I invest in commercial property and the finance is the hard part.”
The asset stacks up. Now the file has to.
Commercial property investors buying, refinancing or growing a portfolio. The deal is rarely lost on the property. It is lost on how the numbers were presented, which facility was picked, and what the covenants do the year after settlement. We do that half, and we arrange none of the credit.
The path
Four steps, in the order that works.
Read the debt you carry
Across a portfolio the structure that suited the first purchase is often carrying the fourth. Every facility in one schedule: pricing, security, covenants, headroom, and the expiries mapped across the next three years. $990, and free for clients of The Lending Lab.
Test the acquisition
The facility you have in mind modelled into your actual position at the rate a lender tests rather than the one you were quoted, on top of everything already carried. $1,850, and free for Lending Lab clients.
Build the file
The submission the funding comes from, built the way a credit team reads one. Both of the deals below had been to other brokers and been knocked back before the file was rebuilt.
Hold the position
Interest cover and loan to value move with rates, rents and valuations, and a portfolio trips a covenant before it misses a payment. Covenant Management runs the compliance all year; The Owner's Desk keeps the capacity current.
What you might need
The products on this path, every fee on the page.
Debt advisory
The whole practice in one place: what you carry, what you can carry, and the covenants in between. Six fixed-fee engagements.
