This work covers securing and documenting finance for property transactions, including commercial loans secured on land or buildings and the ongoing administration of those facilities. It involves assessing the borrower’s position, reviewing and drafting facility agreements, security documents, guarantees, and related ancillary documents, and coordinating with lenders, borrowers, and insurers. A solicitor guides the drafting of standard securities, guarantees, intercreditor arrangements, and enforcement mechanisms if defaults occur, and ensures compliance with financial regulation and money laundering rules. The process is shaped by lender requirements, property title status, and the planned use of the funded asset.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
A solicitor handles the drafting and negotiation of facility agreements, security documents (such as standard security or debenture), guarantees, and intercreditor agreements; reviews title to ensure enforceability; coordinates with lenders, borrowers, and professional advisers; and manages post-completion steps like registration and execution of documents to secure the loan. They navigate institutional policy, borrower solvency considerations, and regulatory requirements that govern lending and property transactions.
