The four deals provide funding for new residential developments in London and Manchester, delivering more than 80 new apartments and new commercial space along with 211 student beds in Coventry, and 246 in Sheffield. In aggregate, the developments will deliver over 195,000 sq ft (18,100 m2) of new accommodation.
 
Specifically these loans will assist with the delivery of 18 new apartments and a new commercial unit at Halt Parade, London, NW9 arranged over six floors and the construction of 66 new flats which will be delivered in the Ancoats district of central Manchester.
 
In Coventry and Sheffield, the funding packages will see more than 450 new student beds brought to market.
 
The deals represent a continuation of Maslow’s diversification of its exposure into different real estate market segments covering residential, mixed-use and purpose-built student accommodation across the UK.
 
Ellis Sher, CEO of Maslow Capital, said: 'We witnessed strong growth in our lending levels through 2017, both measured by volume and value with an increase in our average loan size. It is particularly encouraging to see the continued growth in demand in key strategic regions of the UK, where we see further opportunities moving into 2018. With our rapid decision making, rigorous due diligence and deep knowledge of the development process, we remain well placed to support both new and existing clients to bring their plans to fruition.'
 
Towards the end of 2017, Maslow completed two further lending transactions in the student accommodation sector, which will enable schemes in Durham and Nottingham to be delivered in time for the 2018 intake. 

As a result, Maslow has now completed 11 deals in the student accommodation sector, with a combined gross development value of more than £180 mln and delivering 500,000 sq ft of new student accommodation in total.
