| Situation 1 | BANK’S REPOSSESSION |
|---|---|
| Deal Type | Refinancing with Fresh Cash-Out |
| Property | 3 Bedroom Condo along Meyer Road |
| Property Value | $3.2M |
| New Loan Amount | $2.4M (with fresh cash-out of $500K) |
| LTV | 75% |
| Synopsis | Customer, age 51, a senior marketing director in the food logistics industry, was being retrenched in August last year without any prior notice. With his wife being a full-time homemaker, he found himself soon having difficulties in servicing his mortgage repayments, resulting in the bank taking steps to repossess the property for a mortgagee sale within a short span of 6 months.
Despite only having a $1.4M outstanding mortgage with $600K of CPF usage, the bank was unable to grant him additional cash-out facilities to tide him through this challenging period, as he couldn’t pass the 55% TDSR threshold in the absence of regular reported income. |
| Solution (1) | Luckily, the customer managed to find us in time and we eventually saved his house from being repossessed. Arranged our private property lender to grant a $2.4M mortgage loan, out of which $1.4M to redeem his existing mortgage, $600K to refund to CPF with remaining $400K fresh term loan for his personal use, which includes servicing of the monthly instalments with the new private lender. |
| Solution (2) | The customer managed to find a new employment sometime in March this year. We had since successfully helped the customer to refinance the $2.4M from the private lender sometime in September this year. |
| Situation 3 | INHERITANCE DISPUTES |

| Deal Type | To finance purchase of sibling’s share in the property |
| Property | Sem-Detached house along Jalan Seaview |
| Property Value | $$7.5M |
| New Loan Amount | $2.8M |
| LTV | 37.5% |
| Synopsis | Customer, age 62, had jointly inherited the above fully-paid property together with his sister when their father passed away sometime in June last year.
Both siblings were at constant disagreements regarding the sale of the property. Customer had always wanted to keep the property for future capital appreciation and his sister was in favour of selling the property so that she could use the sales proceeds to fund her new condo purchase. |
| Solution (1) | Unable to reach a consensus, the Customer then wanted to buy over his sister 50% equity stakes in the property (valued at $3.75M).
Customer was unable get the bank to finance his part purchase exercise as he cannot meet the TDSR requirement and loan tenure. We then managed to get our private lender to finance his purchase of his sister’s share with a $2.8M loan (with a 75% LTV against the $3.75M purchase price) |
| Solution (2) | Separate financing had also been arranged for the remaining $950K cash difference (being the balance of the remaining 25% purchase price), which was secured by pledging part of Customer’s 50% stakes in the property as well. |
| Situation 2 | BANKRUPTCY LAWSUIT |
|---|---|
| Deal Type | Refinancing with Fresh Cash-Out |
| Property Type | Detached House in Newton Area |
| Property Value | $14M |
| New Loan Amount | $10M |
| LTV | 71.4% |
| Synopsis | Customer, age 72, was facing one of the biggest challenges as a veteran businessman, when one of his suppliers had filed a bankruptcy application against him (being the guarantor for his group of F&B companies).
After successfully obtained the court judgement for a claim-sum of $1.9M, the customer was eventually given 2-month timeline to settle the payment, failing which he would be in imminent danger of being declared a bankrupt, thus crumbling his business empire which he had built for decades. Despite only having an outstanding mortgage of $7.5M (with a 53.5% LTV against its $14M valuation), no bank is willing to explore the fresh financing in view of his age and more importantly, the pending bankruptcy lawsuit. |
| Solution | Secured a $10M financing (@ 71.4% LTV from a non-bank lender, out of which $8.5M was to redeem his existing bank loan with another $1.9M to be earmarked to be paid to the supplier on the agreed deadline. Remaining $600K was disbursed to the Borrower for his personal use.
With the payment made to the supplier and eventual complete withdrawal of the bankruptcy application, we have thus successfully helped our customer to avert the disaster of being made a bankrupt at this age and he can now refocus on rebuilding and restructuring his other business portfolio |

Our borrower was a 52 year old experienced entrepreneur who found himself at the crossroads. He faced a pressing issue that required immediate attention. In a critical moment for his business, he needed an urgent short-term loan of $500,000/- to pay his seafood suppliers. Time was of the essence and he couldn’t afford delays. However, there was a catch. He had an existing loan with UOB, and he was only seeking a brief 6-month loan tenure. Refinancing the entire property for such a short period seemed excessive and unnecessary. |

Determined to provide swift and hassle-free assistance, we worked diligently to secure a solution. Through our extensive network, we found a non-bank lender willing to approve the $500,000/- short term 6-month loan request within a remarkable 48 hours. The speed at which the funds were disbursed was equally impressive. Within just 72 hours, the money was in his company’s accounts, ready to settle his suppliers’ bills. The best part? There was no need to go through the cumbersome process of refinancing the property. Through this case, we can learn the power of agility and tailored solutions. |
