Arranging bank finance for UK property development
In: Journal of Valuation, Band 7, Heft 2, S. 110-122
Illustrates the sharp increase in bank lending to UK property
companies, which has occurred between 1985 and 1989. Considers some of
the reasons, not all of which relate to the property market. Also
examines the varying attitudes banks will have to different types of
lending proposals, and this is expanded to look at the variety of roles
which a bank may assume, be it as lender, arranger, or partner. Provides
insights into how banks will analyse the risk inherent in any particular
proposal. Finally, suggests how prospective borrowers might find a
suitable bank and present their proposals.
