Preferred Equity and Joint Venture

Joint venture finance and preferred equity financing are options available to leverage and increase your property development loan potential.

 

But just what are they, and how do they work?

You get higher levels of leverage at a lower cost than common equity while our funders get a more secured position and higher return for their risk.

Perhaps you have heard of these terms as ‘joint venture funding’, ‘equity joint venture’, ‘joint venture loans’ or ‘preferred equity’. What joint venture finance or preferred equity financing can do is increase your borrowing potential beyond the limitations of traditional construction finance facilities without a second mortgage.

Joint Venture

 

Joint venture finance incorporates the lender in the capacity of investor as a party to the project. Generally, joint venture funding is a project specific, contractual agreement between parties that shares the risk, expenses, losses and profits of the project.

Often the Joint Venture partner is not only contributing funds to the project, but also development experience, industry contacts and other specific skills required to complete the project.

About Financing

Preferred Equity

 

Preferred equity financing is particularly specific. Pref equity finance supports strong and experienced developers with a solid development project to undertake. Preferred equity funding covers both the land and the build, with the pref equity referring to the completed build as a whole.

Preferred equity finance suits larger scale developments with a well-subscribed pre-sale.

 

Pref equity is useful to protect the developers equity and allows them to have multiple projects on the go, while not degrading the developers ability to invest in other projects simultaneously.

 

The key thing to remember with preferred equity finance is that the senior debt capital is repaid in advance of the equity.

We can structure finance for your project with an equity or JV investment in the property-owning entity.
