The first new loan offering of 2108 has got off to a flying start. More than 27 per cent funded in less than a day, lenders are demonstrating great enthusiasm for this property-backed offer.
As is our wont on these occasions, we let the borrowers speak for themselves – and remind you that we have used our best efforts to ensure that all representations are true, but cannot categorically warrant that this is so. The offering has an indicative yield of 9 per cent, and an A rating from our credit-analysis committee.
[The] company is a substantial property development business and we have been trading for 9 years. We focus on purchasing and developing listed properties for residential use in leading cities in Germany including Berlin, Frankfurt, Hannover and Leipzig.
The shortage of residential property in Germany means that there is an opportunity to increase our level of development activity and that is why we are seeking to borrow through Money&Co.
We have completed over 50 projects in the past 9 years with a total value in excess of 1.5 billion euros. Germany has been the top performing EU economy over most time periods and it showed particular resilience in weathering the European debt crisis. As a result, it has had a stable housing market…
A review of German house prices over many years evidences an extremely stable market with small increases (c.1%) seen each year. As a result, the housing sector in Germany is viewed as strong, stable and predictable with an exceptional long-term outlook. We have experienced strong growth as demand for residential property has increased and we see this continuing for the foreseeable future.
