Additional terms commonly used in the information published on the Website:
 

LTV (loan-to-value)

 

Loan-to-value ratio is calculated as follows: the basic Loan amount (principal) divided by the market value of the property provided as Security for the Loan.

 

Market value is determined by a certified, independent real estate valuer.

 

FLTV

(future loan-to-value)

 

Future loan-to-value ratio is calculated as follows: the basic Loan amount (principal) divided by the expected market value of the property provided as Security for the Loan after specific refurbishment work and other value increasing activities have been completed in regard of the property.

 

Expected market value is determined by a certified, independent real estate valuer, based on the property refurbishment or turn-around plan.

 

Mortgage

 

A registered pledge encumbering the property financed with the Loan, which entitles Bulkestate to enforce the Security by way of sale of the property, e.g. via an auction (see also "Foreclosure"), to pay off the Loan in the event the Borrower defaults on the Loan or otherwise fails to abide by the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement.

 

Equity loan

 

Equity loans (also known as mezzanine loans) are loans not secured directly by a mortgage on the property financed with the Loan but by other types of collateral or personal guarantees provided by the Borrower. Such loans may be subordinated to another more senior lender such as a bank that has established a first ranking mortgage on the property.

 

The term “equity loan” is used in this case as such loans usually provide capital filling the “gap” between initial funds provided by the equity investors and a senior bank loan.

 

Foreclosure

A legal process by which the outstanding obligations of a Borrower who has stopped making payments in line with the Loan Agreement or has otherwise failed to comply with the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement are recovered by enforcing the sale of the property and other assets used as Security for the Loan.

See description under “Equity”.

An obligation undertaken by a legal person, e.g. a company or an organisation (the guarantor), to pay the debt owed by a third party (the debtor) to the creditor if the debtor fails to pay the debt themselves.
