Aldermore bank has provided Kexgill a £29m, 10 year, interest only Commercial Residential Investment refinance facility on the innovative University Quarter, a branded area adjacent to The University of Hull campus.
John Carter, commercial director for commercial real estate at Aldermore said: “We’re delighted to have worked with such an experienced operator like Kexgill and provide them with the bespoke finance facilities they need. Student accommodation projects can be complex and developments in the sector are often not well understood by some lenders. This deal underpins Aldermore’s expertise in this market, our commitment to provide regional support, and our mission to back clients like Kexgill to fulfil their ambitions.”
Michael Graham, senior lending manager at Aldermore, said: “This deal is a great example of the work we’re doing in the north of England. Working closely with brokers to back operators and help them get the funding they need.”
Richard Stott, managing director of the Kexgill Group, said: “We needed a trusted partner to understand our commitment to making cohesive long-term communities not just bricks and mortar. The University Quarter is a thriving area which includes services and facilities which add to the security but not normally associated with an investment vehicle. We have found that partner in Aldermore.”
