Lawrence Stephens has advised Blue Shield Capital on an £18 million loan for a UK-based landlord and build-to-rent operator focused on city-centre rental properties. The loan was for their flagship property, a 119-unit BTR scheme in Liverpool City Centre, completed in 2023.
The 12-month facility, set at 69% LTV, is designed to assist the borrower in refinancing their existing debt and optimising their portfolio structure. This deal is the largest they have completed to date and is the latest in a number of fast-moving deals they have undertaken supported by our team.
Blue Shield Capital is a fast-growing property lending firm who provides flexible financing solutions for property owners and investors.
The team was led by Director and Head of Banking Ajoy Bose-Mallick, with support from Directors Ann Ebberson and Alex Edwards.
Ajoy commented: “We are delighted to have supported Blue Shield on their largest deals to date. We are pleased to have played our part in enabling Blue Shield to exceed its targets for 2024”.
