Complex Deals.
Expertly Coordinated.
Some property deals look straightforward on paper.
Then the valuation comes in lower than expected.
A lender changes criteria.
Or the refinance needs to work at a very specific point in the project.
When several moving parts need to align, the structure of the deal becomes critical.
At GPS Financial we help property investors and developers coordinate the finance for projects where timing, lenders and exit strategy all have to work together.
The Problems Nobody Plans For
Most projects do not become complicated because of the property itself.
They become complicated because of the structure behind the deal.
Where the deposit is coming from.
How the company is structured.
Who the shareholders are.
How funds move through the transaction.
What the refinance depends on later.
A deal can look simple until lenders start asking questions about things like:
Pension withdrawals being used for deposits
Complex SPV or company structures
Intercompany loans or shareholder funding
Capital coming from overseas
Multiple investors involved in a purchase
Directors or shareholders changing during a project
Existing borrowing affecting lender appetite
A refinance that depends on a specific valuation
Individually none of these are unusual.
But when several appear within the same project, the structure of the deal needs to be thought through properly from the beginning.
Where Deals Often Go Wrong
Many funding problems start earlier than people realise.
The purchase is arranged first.
The refurb is planned next.
The refinance is assumed to work later.
But lenders, valuations and timelines rarely behave exactly how the spreadsheet suggested.
When those elements do not align, projects slow down, capital becomes tied up longer than expected, or the exit becomes harder than planned.
That is why experienced investors focus on the structure of the deal from the outset.
Many of the projects we help structure involve situations like this.
Example Of A Complex Deal
An investor recently approached us after securing a mixed-use property that required refurbishment before refinancing.
The purchase needed to complete quickly, the refurbishment funding had to be structured alongside the bridge, and the refinance needed to work with the projected end value of the property.
The structure also involved a company purchase and shareholder funding being introduced into the deal.
Rather than treating each stage separately, the funding was structured so the bridge, refurbishment and refinance all worked together from the outset.
This allowed the investor to complete the purchase, carry out the works and move toward the planned refinance without the project stalling halfway through.
Many projects follow a similar pattern.
Individually the issues are manageable, but when several appear in the same deal, coordination becomes essential.
How We Help
At GPS Financial we work with investors and developers to coordinate funding for property projects where several moving parts need to come together.
Rather than treating each loan separately, we look at how the entire funding structure needs to work.
This often means coordinating:
Bridging finance for the purchase
Funding for refurbishment or conversion
A refinance strategy that works with the end valuation
The right lender at each stage of the project
The aim is simple.
Ensure every part of the deal supports the next stage.
Projects We Often Help With
The projects that benefit most from careful coordination tend to include:
Auction purchases requiring fast completion
Heavy refurbishment projects
Commercial to residential conversions
Development exit bridging
Buy Refurbish Refinance strategies
Portfolio restructuring
These types of projects rarely fit neatly into a single standard mortgage.
They require funding that is structured properly from the beginning.
If you are working on a property project and want to explore how the funding could be structured, speak with our team.
We will help you coordinate the finance so every part of the project can move forward together.
