Although it does handle some corporate lending, the majority of Clarke Willmott LLP‘s financings relate to the real estate sector. Here the work is split between social housing and commercial property matters, with instructions coming from both lenders and borrowers. ’Outstanding’ team head Fraser MacRae is very skilled at handling secured lending for banks and housing associations, including on the provision of revolving credit facilities and private placement bond issuances. In addition, MacRae has niche experience in relation to education finance. Bethan Evans also handles some social housing finance work, but is best-known for her work in relation to property development finance, including within the healthcare sector.
