Mortgage-secured financing for a real estate development project (Stage III)

Summary

The Company was established in 2020 to develop real estate projects in Ādaži. It has already sold one property consisting of 22 properties for residential construction. Currently, the Company is developing another land plot in Ādaži municipality located in a private residential house area. The development plan involves dividing the land plot into 56 new separate land properties and facilitating the necessary infrastructure to sell them as land plots for private residential construction. 

The Company acquired the land plot in 2020. At the end of 2022, Capitalia issued financing of EUR 150,000 for this development project and most of the development works have been done already, including the gravel road system, along with centralized water and sewage infrastructure. 

The development is now in its final stage, with the remaining tasks consisting of constructing individual electricity connections to each land unit and completing the final installation of asphalt road covering. These final improvements are intended to enhance the overall appeal of the properties, aligning with client expectations for higher-quality access roads.

Capitalia has already provided financing for this project in the amount of EUR 273,930, covering two out of three tranches. The Company now intends to proceed with the third-final tranche to upgrade the road covering to asphalt. In conjunction with this improvement, adjustments will be made to the initial road construction plan. Following the completion of the asphalt installation, the road will be officially commissioned. Once the road is commissioned, the municipality will grant official addresses to each subdivided land plot, enabling the Company to begin concluding sales agreements with buyers.

Therefore, the Company is seeking EUR EUR 61,620 financing for 12 months to finance the road construction project. The loan will carry a 11.4% annual interest rate (0.95% monthly) and it will be amortized at the end of the term from the sale of the land plots. The loan will be secured with the shared first-rank mortgage to the land property under development with the current market value of EUR 460,000 as well as with a commercial pledge on the Company’s assets. The project risk rate is B (85 out of 100).
