Extensive experience assisting lending clients with all aspects of their business whether they have an established financial services business or are just in the process of starting one
Align Law is able to assist with, and advise on, all aspects of lending activities, including commercial borrowing and lending.
Consumer lending products are generally more difficult to obtain when the purpose of the loan relates to commercial properties or property development ventures. Our banking and finance team is commercial, practical and holistic in their approach to the structuring of transactions to assist our clients in their dealings with both public and private lenders.
We have extensive experience assisting lending clients with all aspects of their business whether they have an established financial services business or are just in the process of starting one, and with everything from assisting in developing the business structure to fund set-up work and documenting the finance transactions.
Align Law is able to guide lenders and borrowers through every aspect of the commercial lending process including where the arrangement is in connection with:
- the purchase of commercial property;
- refinancing an existing commercial loan;
- using equity for commercial investment purposes;
- structuring of financial services businesses
- preparing and drafting IMs and Sub-IMs;
- documentation of financing transactions of all kinds, from CBD high-rise funding to domestic real estate development
It is a pleasure to work with Align law. The team offers a professional yet down to earth environment for its clients. Our lawyers were clear, effective in their communication to us. The Align Corporate advisory team were very knowledgeable and hand held us through every step of the way. We achieved our goal with record turn around time and gained a lot of knowledge on the way.
