Exeter FAQs
Common questions about private finance in Exeter
What if my situation involves divorce or estate planning?+
Common scenarios — private finance regularly supports liquidity around divorce settlements, IHT planning and estate restructuring.
Can it complete quickly?+
Yes — private banks aren't always slow. With a clean brief and right introduction, 2–6 weeks is realistic. Bridging via private capital can be faster still.
What about overseas property?+
Some private banks lend cross-border, often UK security against overseas purchase or vice versa. We'll match accordingly.
Are there fees?+
Yes — typically arrangement fees, legal fees and sometimes ongoing relationship fees. We disclose all of them upfront.
Will I need a personal guarantee?+
Often yes, but structure varies — sometimes secured cleanly, sometimes alongside corporate or trust borrowers.
What loan sizes does private finance suit?+
Generally £250k upwards, with no real upper limit. The ratio of complexity to size matters more than size alone.
