Synopsis

Over the last decade, a range of organisations have set up shop to provide real estate loans of a size that typically falls below the radar of traditional bank lenders and insurance companies. The enhanced risk that comes with underwriting real estate assets during covid-19 pandemic is discouraging banks from providing finance within the €10million – €50million property loan market, to the benefit of alternative lenders which are increasingly seeking new business.

Those with a focus on mid-market loans aim to do business in parts of the market that are perceived to be underserved by the larger, more established lenders.

Some are known as specialist lenders – boutique firms that focus on niches such as development finance or bridge loans. Some are fintech firms, which raise capital through online platforms. Some are challenger banks; relatively small retail banks that were set up to compete with long-established giants.
