“Domus Nova set up the refinancing of two of my properties in Notting Hill. Despite a complicated income structure involving short-stay guests, a recording studio and a family business, they were able to secure a deal I struggled to source elsewhere. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.”

Case Study – Oxford Gardens W10
Recognising the untapped potential of this North Kensington property, a local developer approached us for funding solutions. With planning permission already in place to convert the undemised loft above – subject to the space being purchased from the council – the client intended to create a design-led duplex. Working closely with them, we secured a bridging loan, which was converted into a full project loan once the loft was successfully acquired from the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea.
Securing funding was not without its challenges – not least justifying the end value our client was hoping to achieve. However, guided by our knowledge of the upper end of the market, the confidence shown by the funder has been validated, with the result exceeding initial valuations.
Collaborating with interior designer studio BOMA Projects, our client invested heavily in the interiors and high-spec finishes, which ultimately helped maximise returns. The subsequent home – which was sold by Domus Nova – ended up achieving a value around 300% higher than the mean property value of the area.
“Kristian was instrumental. Without him, we wouldn’t have secured such great financing. He understood the potential of the project from the off, and ultimately helped us to unlock the value of the property and achieve a successful result.”

Case Study – Boscombe Road W12
Prior to redevelopment, this property was an HMO (House in Multiple Occupation) consisting of seven bedsits. Having seen it was going to auction the following week, a local developer approached us with the intention of converting the property into one family home. The client had no available capital to complete the purchase. But we were able to arrange a bridging facility against an existing property – enabling them to place and then win the bid. We had 21 days to complete the purchase, in which time development finance and bridging facilities needed to be secured.
However, issues with the property meant the vendor could not fulfil the conditions of the sale – so an extension was mutually agreed. The issues were resolved and having secured four finance offers, we opted for a development lender who provided a loan of 80% purchase price and 100% of building costs.
Working closely with the client and their solicitor, we were able to evolve our offering as the terms changed – securing a great deal and ensuring the project was a success.
