Real estate investment boutique 777 Capital Partners is expanding its service portfolio to include debt advisory via its newly founded subsidiary, 777 Financial Advisors, based in Frankfurt am Main.
The new debt advisory business line is headed by Matthias Heimann (48), who has taken over the management of the subsidiary. Heimann's team will provide investors with advice on optimal financing structures, and developers on the right financing mix.
Thomas Landschreiber, partner and co-founder of 777 Capital Partners said: 'The real estate financing market continues to be shaped by steadily increasing competition and regulation.
'With many years of expertise and an excellent network, we have all the prerequisites to offer significant added value in financing real estate. We want to provide our clients optimal financing solutions that are perfectly tailored to their specific situation.'
The advisory concept of 777 Financial Advisors covers the entire range of real estate asset classes, according to the firm. Consulting services range from financing of land acquisitions and bridge loans to mezzanine or whole-loan financing.
Heimann is a trained banker who worked for many years in real estate finance at various institutions including DZ Hyp, Lloyds Banking Group (formerly HBOS Bank of Scotland) and Eurohypo. In the past six years, he was responsible for debt finance and debt advisory at Corestate Capital Group in Frankfurt am Main.
Throughout his career, he was involved in the structuring of around 150 real estate financings with a total volume of approximately €5 bn on the client or bank side.
Heimann said: 'With my many years of experience and track record, I am pleased to offer a holistic advisory approach and to accompany investors until the disbursement of the selected financing. We consider ourselves as an extended, full-service workbench for our clients.'
