Regent manages London residential properties on behalf of international landlords, with clients concentrated across China, Hong Kong and Singapore.

K3 Advantage, led by Jack Kerkham, provided the financial and tax due diligence, and Fieldfisher provided legal support.

Growth Lending then worked closely with Regent to structure a facility that reflected the complexity of the transaction and the long-term needs of the business.

Alex Smith, managing director at Regent Letting, commented: “Partnering with Growth Lending and being supported by K3 Advantage has been outstanding.
