Case Study: A tailored solution for a self employed entrepreneur

September 7th, 2011

We understand the challenges of arranging large loans for self-employed entrepreneurs and have the private banking contacts to provide a tailored solution for such clients.

To discuss this or any other large mortgage case, please contact us.

Case profile
Our client, a self employed director of a communications agency, needed to arrange a mortgage of £1.25 million to purchase a property valued at £2 million. The high street bank he was dealing with delayed its decision on the application and then, after a few weeks, declined it on the grounds that his accounts had shown a reduction in profits, compared to the previous period. This created considerable stress and anxiety for the client as he was under pressure to exchange on the property within two weeks. Read the rest of this entry »

Case Study: £1.85million mortgage for a non-UK citizen

September 7th, 2011

We have just arranged a competitively priced £1.85 million mortgage for a non-UK citizen.

To discuss this or any other large mortgage case, please contact us now

Case profile
Our client, a South African lawyer, wanted to purchase a property, valued at £2.35 million, to use as a second home in London. He works and lives in South Africa with no permanent rights to reside in the UK and is a wealthy individual who could afford to purchase the property outright. However there are restrictions on the amount of money that may leave South Africa and so the client needed a substantial mortgage of £1.85million.

The solution
As the client has no permanent rights of residence, he could not find a high street bank that was willing to lend.  He chose Largemortgageloans.com because of its reputation as a large mortgage specialist having strong relationships with over 44 private banks and boutique lenders.

The experienced Largemortgageloans.com mortgage manager recognised that the client banked with one of the largest financial institutions in South Africa which also operates a specialist UK bank. A meeting was set up with the private banking division of the UK bank, which offered the client a competitive rate of 2.24% over the Bank of England Bank Rate.
