CapitalRise has passed the £100m lending milestone with the completion of a multi-million-pound deal in London’s Chelsea.

The prime property lender announced that it has advanced a senior loan for the acquisition and redevelopment of a multi-million-pound residential property in Chelsea, which is being undertaken by the prime property developer Wilben Developments.

In 2020, CapitalRise facilitated 10 multi-million-pound loans, funding assets worth almost £120m in gross development value across prime locations across England.

As of December, the prime property lender had lent £92m. CapitalRise’s financial results have showed that during the 2020 financial year, it achieved year-on-year income growth of 41 per cent with no increase in costs.

“We are immensely proud of every project that we fund, and this project heralds a major milestone for us as it takes us over £100m of loan origination since our inception.”
