Mezzanine financing has proven itself to be a valuable lending option for investors and those seeking commercial or development financing.
Hodgestone Finance’s mezzanine finance has assisted numerous clients, with one such client being a developer who had multiple live projects running at once. This meant that a lot of their equity was tied up, and they were not able to commence another project that was ready due to the low lending parameters that their bank had approved.
The bank also did not allow for a second mortgage to be registered on the title of that, or any other, project, cancelling out the option of acquiring mezzanine financing through the bank.
Hodgestone Finance assisted by amending the Unit Trust (SPV Borrowing Entity) with a new class of preference units included that were in favour of the client.
The client then advanced funds just prior to the senior funder’s first drawdown. The client can then be repaid with the option of staying in the project for the life of the project, or by the profit proceeds of other project/s upon completion.
