Client Background
- Residence: Monaco
- Completion Timeline: 5 weeks
- Loan Amount: €5m
- Property Location: Capri, Italy
Setting the Scene
We received this introduction from one of our professional introducers from a Trust company. This case presented an intriguing challenge: an Italian national pursuing a €5 million property acquisition in Capri within an ambitious five-week timeframe. The client requested a loan that would cover the entire property purchase price and needed a six-month term for repaying the debt.
Understanding the Client’s Requirements
Collaborating closely with the introducer, we gained invaluable insights into the client’s profile and requirements, which included the client’s objective to purchase the property through an Italian SRL (Società a Responsabilità Limitata). Our collaboration enabled us to present the credit paper in the most advantageous way to the prospective banks.
Our Strategic Approach
As the funding requirement was for 100% of the purchase price, we needed to offer the banks another asset. Leveraging one of the client’s many property assets as collateral enabled us to obtain a reduced loan-to-value and a much more favourable rate for the client.
Due to the intricate nature of the structures involved, significant restructuring was required to provide the lender with satisfactory security, which entailed relocating the jurisdiction of the holding company. This highlights the vital importance of our discovery stage, which enables us to establish a comprehensive understanding of the client’s circumstances. At Henry Dannell, we aim to always provide a solution and find a means to adeptly navigate complex issues.
Execution
With a comprehensive understanding of the client’s profile and assets, coupled with our robust relationships with lenders, we secured a mortgage offer within six days from receipt of the initial enquiry. This rapid response was instrumental in enabling our client to meet the stringent five-week deadline for their property transaction.
