Pivot Case Study - £8.915m Heavy- Refurbishment in Leeds Pivot played a crucial role in the transformation of a derelict commercial property into a 54-apartment luxury development in Leeds, now nearing completion. The project, funded through a ~£9m facility, beginning with the acquisition of the property and continued with the conversion into modern living spaces. The client, an experienced property developer with over 20 years in the industry, faced several challenges, including a complicated acquisition from receivership. Pivot worked closely with the client to negotiate key agreements and customised funding solutions. This development is the first completed scheme in the regeneration area, highlighting Pivot's ability to deliver flexible financing and hands-on support in complex deals.

Pivot Case Study - £654k Residential Bridge Facility Pivot recently helped a supported living property developer secure funding for four properties in Derbyshire, Hull, and Workington, each with five units perfect for social housing. The client sought a bridging loan to facilitate the purchase, and Pivot provided flexible funding in multiple tranches, ensuring a smooth transaction. Once minor adaptations are complete, the client plans to sell the properties to a specialised REIT with a long lease from a local social housing provider, further expanding affordable housing options in these key regions.

Pivot Case Study - £1.8 Ground Up Development Facility in Nottingham Pivot refinanced an existing bridging loan and provided a development loan, for the refurbishment of a bungalow and the build of 5x new three-bedroom detached bungalows with garages and south-facing gardens. The site, with full planning permission, is well-connected to transport, amenities, and schools, making it ideal for families. Pivot's client has been involved in more than 50 successful projects in the East Midlands, and is supported by a strong co-investor, allowing for a smooth underwriting process. The exit strategy includes off-plan marketing and the client's skilled development team will ensure the scheme is delivered on time, supporting the robust sales plan. A promising opportunity for stakeholders.

Farewell Milly C. and Matthew Rogers ⛳ Earlier this month, Pivot bid farewell to two fantastic team members, Milly and Matt, with a fun-filled outing at Swingers (mini golf). Matt has been a valuable asset to Pivot since joining us in 2022, and Milly has made significant contributions over the past 18 months. While we're sad to see them go, we wish them both the best of luck on their future endeavours. Milly is embarking on a new chapter in beautiful Bali, and we have no doubt Matt will continue to dominate the mini golf scene. #finance #team #workdayout

CASE UPDATE: Pivot finds one of its most rewarding roles is engaging with developers at their sites, offering assistance and support to guarantee successful project completion. One of the team members recently made a visit to the Southsea site to monitor progress and to check the client's needs are being met. They were pleased to see the site being so close to completion. Keep up the good work! #developmentfinance #progression #finance
