Agreement for £2.75m Development Exit Loan in Frome, Somerset

We are pleased to announce a recent agreement for a development exit loan in the town of Frome, Somerset. Assetz Capital will be providing financing to support the ground-up development of an impressive scheme comprising 7 townhouses, 2 detached houses, and one office, located in the heart of the town centre.

The development exit loan, valued at £2.75 million, represents 60% of the loan-to-gross development value (LTGDV), demonstrating our confidence in the project’s success. This significant financial backing will enable the developer to complete the last two detached houses with a significant cash release towards his next project.

With a short-term loan period of 6 months, we are proud to play a pivotal role in supporting the timely delivery of this transformative development. The loan structure has been tailored to meet the specific needs of the project, ensuring an efficient exit strategy for the borrower.

Our Relationship Director, Jon Pike, and our Case Manager, Jenna Gray have both been instrumental in facilitating this agreement. Their expertise and dedication to meeting the borrower’s requirements have been key to the success of this deal. Their involvement further highlights Assetz Capital’s commitment to providing exceptional personalised service to its clients.
