Recognise the opportunity

When to bring the scenario to Charles Frank

The strongest early conversations identify the client objective and the feature that makes a specialist route worth exploring.

01

Auction purchase

A fixed completion timetable needs early review of the legal pack, security, funds required and exit route.

02

Chain break

The onward purchase needs to complete before an existing property sale has finished.

03

Refurbishment

The property or proposed works prevent an immediate move onto suitable longer-term lending.

04

Commercial or mixed use

A trading, investment or semi-commercial asset requires short-term funding around a defined event.

A useful first view

Four parts of the case need to connect

Specialist packaging works best when the facts explain one another. The portal helps keep the initial position and subsequent requirements in the same workflow.

01

Security

Property type, condition, tenure, value and marketability determine which lenders can engage.

02

Net funds required

The required net advance must be considered alongside retained interest, lender fees and transaction costs.

03

Deadline

The completion date, reason for urgency and readiness of valuation and legal work need to align.

04

Exit

The primary repayment route, supporting evidence, time allowance and fallback plan are pressure-tested.

Prepare the conversation

The information that creates a stronger starting point

Requirements vary by lender and case. These are the details that usually help the specialist team understand the position quickly.

  • Property address, use, condition and transaction details
  • Purchase price or estimated value and the amount required
  • Target completion date and the reason it matters
  • Evidence supporting the primary and fallback exits
  • Costed schedule and timescale for any proposed works
  • Borrower, company and portfolio details where relevant

Partner questions

Useful context before the first conversation

Product and lender criteria change. A portal demonstration shows how current scenarios move into the specialist workflow.

Ideally before bidding. That creates time to review the property, legal pack, funding contribution and exit without treating an indicative conversation as a guaranteed completion.
