The Requirement
Our client approached 2XL Commercial Finance to secure funding for the acquisition of a residential block comprising 28 two-bedroom flats in Leicestershire. The purchase formed part of a broader strategy to expand and develop their growing property portfolio within the region.

The Challenge
The transaction required a competitive funding structure that aligned with the client’s long-term investment strategy, while ensuring speed and certainty to secure the asset. As part of a wider acquisition plan, it was essential that the financing supported future growth without restricting flexibility.

The Solution
2XL Commercial Finance structured and secured a £2.1 million commercial mortgage, delivering highly competitive terms in a challenging lending environment. Leveraging strong lender relationships and market insight, we ensured the deal progressed efficiently from application through to completion.

The Outcome
The client successfully completed the acquisition, adding a significant multi-unit asset to their existing portfolio. The structure of the deal positions them to continue expanding, with further developments and purchases already planned.

Darren Willoughby, Managing Director, commented:
“This was a great acquisition for the client as they continue to grow an already substantial portfolio. The deal was extremely competitive, with pricing among the best I’ve seen in the past 10 years. The clients are first-class, and we look forward to supporting their future projects.”

Client Feedback

“Great support from Darren and the team at 2XL. Proactive, commercially minded and able to navigate matters efficiently to get the deal over the line. We’d be happy to work together again on future opportunities.”
