Case profile
Our client, a self-employed entrepreneur with financial interests in a range of companies, needed to arrange a million pound remortgage quickly. His bank had decided to reduce its residential loan book as part of its deleveraging programme and asked our client to repay his £1.45 million mortgage in full within weeks.
Our client’s income was erratic – as is typical with many entrepreneurs – with losses in 2009 and 2010 and profits in 2011 and this pattern meant that the high street banks would not consider the case. Nor did our client have investable (also known as liquid) assets that he could move to a new lender as part of the deal; this factor discouraged a number of private banks.
Solution
The client’s particular financial affairs, especially his self-employed status and his multiple sources of income, meant that we needed to present the case correctly to the right private bank. Using our experience of the 44 private banks and lenders that we deal with, we quickly found a bank with whom the client had a commercial connection, leading to a reference from the commercial lending arm of the bank to the residential lending arm. The bank was willing to lend the money, on the proviso that the client deposited 12 months’ interest up front as additional security before completion. The bank was also willing to add this amount to the total loan.
