We arrange finance for other Developer's as another arm of our business. We have unique relations with various HNWI's and Family Offices that most people in the industry don't have access to or the "entry". We invest our own equity in projects as well. If you have a project that requires equity and you have the relevant experience then get in touch. 

​

We also sometimes work with a few individual investors on our own smaller projects, but only if the investor has the right attitude and profile. We usually work only with individuals who understand property to some extent as we don't want to "hold hands" with a nervous investor, better to work with someone who is business savvy.
