The challenge

The tenant had five years left on its lease, and lenders look closely at lease length and tenant strength. The investor wanted a long-term loan that would not depend on the tenant renewing.

What we did

We provided the lease, the tenant's published accounts and the rent review history. We approached lenders that are comfortable with single-let industrial units and assess debt cover on the rent. A 60% LTV gave the lender comfort over the lease length and kept the debt cover strong.

The outcome

The company completed on the unit with a term loan that runs beyond the current lease.
