The real estate finance market has experienced significant change over recent years, with increased regulation, new categories of lenders entering the market and notable changes to documentation.
Our team of real estate finance and banking lawyers provide our clients with commercially astute legal advice on all aspects of property development and investment funding. This includes real estate finance and corporate lending for commercial and residential property, portfolio buy-to-let, development finance, healthcare, hotels and leisure, private client and Loan Market Association (LMA) work.
Our broad range of clients, both funders and borrowers, includes regulated banks, unregulated senior lenders, intermediaries, brokers, developers, as well as regulated and unregulated mezzanine lenders and bridging companies.
Lawrence Stephens works hard to champion diversity, equality and inclusion. Our work within the industry has highlighted to us that, despite their significant contributions as leaders and trailblazers, women remain underrepresented in the real estate finance sector. Having identified this disparity, we launched the Women in Real Estate Finance (WREF) initiative last year to push for gender equality in this field. Please click here to read about our activities.
