The best financing conditions. The real estate finance market is a specialised environment that swiftly responds to changes in the real estate industry.
Solutions that were obvious years ago may now often be outdated for your real estate purposes. CBRE offers a rock solid combination of specialised finance knowledge along with real estate expertise from our sales, rental, management, taxation and research teams from all across the world. We ensure you get the best financing conditions that seamlessly match your objectives for your real estate and organisation.

Unique real estate financing insights. To answer your financing queries we approach the parties that best match your specific situation. By comparing their offers, we will provide insights about the conditions, cash flows, profitability and other relevant details of the lending process. We advise you on the possibilities and focuses directly pertaining to the particular property. This integrated approach is a huge time saver and will guide you towards a well-reasoned decision. In addition, you get to truly focus on your real estate strategy.

A predictable and methodical process. The (new) financing suppliers work around the globe and each have their own acceptance processes. We know the difference between parties and know which information and type of analyses they require. Our fine-tuned preparation, which includes financial modelling, is geared towards this and makes it a predictable process. This speeds up the procedure and allows us to better respond to new development in an agile fashion.

  • Optimal real estate financing, in a predictable, transparent process and a clearly outlined result that matches your objectives regarding profitability, risk and timing
  • Finance accounting with an expansive comparison of the offered conditions, resulting cash flows and returns, including details of the lending process
  • Information memorandum with in-depth transaction analysis and financial modelling targeting potential lenders, resulting in a swift, transparent and predictable process
  • Progress reports that allow you to consult the process, information used and expected results at any given time, giving you the means to make adjustments along the way



Loan & Corporate recovery. Quick and efficient recovery of real estate loans by thoroughly preparing the sale of the property, in private or through an action.  
 
Quickly outlining all the possibilities. Our strength lies primarily in our ability to apply solution-oriented thinking and to identify legal possibilities and impossibilities. It is particularly important for a real estate lender such as yourself to ensuring a maximal yield when recovering a loan. This enforcement process, however, also needs to be feasible and transparent. Thanks to our involvement in many real estate transactions - on both a major institutional level as well as a much smaller local scale - and to our know-how of real estate financing we are able to provide a quick and clear solution, tailor-made to your situation.

Complete file and a result-driven approach. Recovering your real estate loan in an efficient and sound way can often prove complex. CBRE’s transparent and structured approach provides you with a realistic expectation of the end result. The transaction file we provide is as complete as possible and gives a good portrayal of the real estate for sale or auction. There is advice on the available options and support for every step on the way to achieving a satisfactory conclusion. We focus on maximising the sales result by leveraging our vast store of real estate knowledge, data and insights.

  • Real estate dataset: an organized dataset covering the object that is subject to execution. This can be delivered to bidders either directly or via the auction platform
