Assisting housing providers with grant funding and facility agreements

Our experienced finance solicitors advise on all aspects of social housing finance and have extensive knowledge of the social housing sector. 

We are one of the leading law firms advising housing associations on their funding requirements. The team is rated by independent commentators as one of the top UK firms acting for borrowers in the social housing sector.

We advise on:

• New finance and refinancings;
• Public Bond issues and private placements by housing association borrowers;
• Negotiation and completion of documentation for secured loan facilities from private sector lenders and institutional investors;
• Financing for group structures;
• Social housing project finance – PFI/PPP schemes;
• Strategic advice around funder consents to pursue innovative funding/commercial arrangements; and
• Advice on the use of facilities to fund new and innovative projects.

We work in partnership with our clients to ensure the outcome meets the business aim. As experienced advisers on finance matters, we aim to keep the process of raising finance straightforward and simple while actively managing the risks of entering into long-term funding arrangements.
