The client had agreed to acquire the villa, with completion scheduled for mid‑August 2025. The plan was to fund the down payment from an investment expected to mature ahead of completion. Unfortunately, the funds did not materialise in time. With the contract already signed, failure to complete risked losing the deposit.
Knowing the client owned a pied‑à‑terre in London, we arranged an emergency short‑term bridge loan secured on that property, releasing the capital required for the Dubai down payment.
The client completed both transactions within a week, avoided penalties and now had a 12-month period in which to repay the bridge loan.
This illustrates the benefit of a genuinely cross‑border approach, coordinating multiple lenders and jurisdictions to deliver a practical solution.
