The five steps, from scenario to settlement

  1. Scenario

    Your broker submits the scenario: the borrower, the security property, the amount sought, the loan to value, the purpose, the term and the exit.

  2. Indicative terms

    We review and, where the scenario fits, issue indicative terms quickly so you can advise your client with confidence.

  3. Due diligence

    We complete our assessment: registered valuation, title and, where relevant, a Land Information Memorandum, together with customer due diligence under the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism Act 2009 and our credit assessment.

  4. Formal offer and documentation

    We issue a Letter of Offer followed by the Loan Agreement and security documents. Your client's solicitor provides the usual certifications.

  5. Settlement

    Settlement proceeds solicitor to solicitor and funds are advanced.

What to send with a scenario

  • Borrower and guarantor details and entity structure
  • Security property address, title and any existing finance and its priority
  • Amount sought, purpose, term and proposed exit
  • Indicative value or recent valuation
  • Timeframe to settlement
