Case Study: Swift Execution of a High-Return Madrid Property Transaction

At Onate, we understand that successful property investment depends on speed, certainty, and flexibility. Our bespoke lending solutions empower investors to seize opportunities that conventional financing simply can’t accommodate.

This case study highlights how Onate’s bridging finance offering enabled a real estate investor to swiftly execute a high-return transaction on a prime residential property in Madrid.

The Challenge

In December 2024, an experienced investor approached Onate with a time-sensitive opportunity. They held an exclusive purchase option on a sought-after residential asset in Madrid but needed immediate liquidity to exercise that option.

Critically, the investor had already negotiated an onward sale, making speed essential. Traditional lending timelines would not suffice.

Our Solution

Onate structured a bespoke bridging loan to meet the investor’s tight timeline and strategic goals.

Key terms of the loan included:

● 7 business days from agreement to execution

● 89% Loan-to-Cost (LTC), accommodating the investor’s capital limitations

● 3-month minimum interest period, aligned with the planned exit

● Zero exit fees, ensuring profit certainty and flexibility

The Outcome

The onward sale of the property was completed in February 2025, allowing the investor to realise a substantial net profit from the transaction.

This case study demonstrates how Onate’s tailored bridging finance solutions support investors to move decisively, realise their property’s potential, and achieve superior financial outcomes. By delivering fast, flexible capital, we help clients unlock opportunities beyond the constraints of traditional lenders.
