The facility needs will be broken down over five years, with c £200m aimed to be deployed each year — currently, Finanze is inviting lenders, funders and institutional investors who have an appetite to lend in this sector to get in touch for this opportunity.

The £1bn will be used for land acquisition and ground-up development of new purpose-built properties, along with renovation and repurposing of existing stock for the social housing and supported living sector.

Overall, the developer aims to build or repurpose over 7,000 properties using the funds.

Once complete, the firm will retain the stock and refinance onto long-term specialist mortgages — Finanze will work with its lending partners to find appropriate funding solutions for the developer.

"Given the quantum involved, it's highly likely that there are allocators we haven't previously worked with, that may now have appetite and we would like to invite them to reach out," said Alastair Hoyne, CEO at Finanze Group and head of Finanze Strategy (pictured above).

Alastair shared his enthusiasm for securing the exclusive mandate, and claimed this rewards Finanze’s work on developing custom products over the past few years.

"It allows us to transition from property finance broker to corporate debt adviser,” he concluded.
