Case studies

2009 has been a year where lenders have been out of the market, unsure of their positioning or just short of money. The result has been that credit has been difficult to access and the terms and conditions have been significantly different from the headline days of 2007; those lenders with readily available funds have tightened policy and taken advantage of their stronger position to increase margin and fees.

It is all the more important to be confident that your transaction can be funded to the right level and in the timescale that you need. We are purposefully displaying recent cases so that you can see what terms are today rather than time past and you will note the month in which each transaction was sanctioned by the lender.
