WHAT WE DO
We ensure at the outset that the GP’s have a sound understanding of the project requirements and processes they face in undertaking an owned scheme. Establishing all the options open to them and the risks associated with each. Making sure that they take best advice to establish who wishes to become involved and what business entity suits the participants.
We produce the detailed indicative cost appraisals, from information provided by other professionals, and develop financial repayment models to assess the viability of the project from the early stages right up to document signing, working closely with the project managers and the work they do with the NHS/DV.
We introduce appropriate lenders and more importantly relationship managers who have familiarity with the schemes we undertake. Within each brand we have bought people on board that now understand the process, understanding the legal and general requirements unique to the GP led development sector.
We act as a sound board to highlight the financial risks and concerns around the financial models working with banks, accountant and legal to assist with explanation and guidance throughout the process.
.
WHY DEAL WITH US…
We provide the finance planning and structuring solution to you and your selected lender, such that the project demonstrates it has captured all of its potential costs, claims and lease rent income streams to secure lender support. We will work with your accountants and chosen legal representatives to ensure you have the right level of advise and guidance at all times throughout the project.
WHY DEAL WITH US…
We assist clients assess and decide on their options to end own and whether it is viable or indeed feasible before too much expenditure or commitment is incurred. We try to ensure the clients have complete outline and awareness of what is required to get a scheme successfully built with the appropriate NHS, or appropriate body support, and the right level of lender support demonstrating value for money and debt serviceability from day one.
WHY DEAL WITH US…
We offer a fixed cost as a % of the project or estimated finance balance required. Should a scheme prove not viable, or the client does not wish to proceed for whatever reason, then the costs will be minimised by our involvement of assessment (with our fees also structured from the outset up to the start on site, or project drawdown of funds).
WHY DEAL WITH US…
We facilitate the process of planning the financing of the GP build from initial assessment and viability, assist with the NHS body rent reimbursement, introduce a selection of suitably experienced professionals for tender – should you not have these contacts -, and facilitate the lending.
