Structured property financing with PrestaFlex
In a constantly evolving Swiss real-estate market, the ability to structure solid, flexible, and sustainable financing has become a key success factor.
At PrestaFlex, we support developers, investors, and property owners in implementing tailor-made financial solutions adapted to every phase of a real-estate project’s life cycle.
A holistic approach to real-estate financing
PrestaFlex acts as an independent Debt Advisor, specializing in the structuring and coordination of complex real-estate financings.
Our mission is to identify, assemble, and optimize the best sources of capital to deliver personalized, stable, and high-performing solutions.
We operate in the following areas:
- Development financing (land acquisition, construction, marketing)
- Income-property financing
- Refinancing of assets or real-estate portfolios
- Sale & lease-back transactions and bridge financing
- Strengthening equity and hybrid financings
The winning combination: Senior, Junior, and Mezzanine
Every real-estate project is unique. That’s why PrestaFlex designs multi-layered financing structures to optimize the balance between debt and equity.
- Senior loan: first-lien financing, often between 50% and 65% Loan-to-Value (LTV).
- Junior loan / Mezzanine financing: complementary second-lien debt, typically 65% to 85% LTV.
- Supplementary equity: private or institutional capital that strengthens the funding base and supports growth.
This architecture reduces capital lock-up, accelerates project delivery, and improves overall returns.
Strengthening equity and securing growth
A major challenge for developers and property owners is to reinforce equity without diluting control.
PrestaFlex structures solutions that turn assets into liquidity while preserving full ownership.
These second-lien or mezzanine financings can be used to:
- fund an extension, renovation, or conversion,
- refinance existing or maturing debt,
- free up liquidity for new investments.
Refinance, restructure, move forward
Refinancing a real-estate asset is often a strategic step to rebalance the balance sheet, reduce debt costs, and free up capital for future projects.
PrestaFlex analyzes the existing capital structure and proposes bespoke solutions, including:
- extension or restructuring of loans,
- optimization of the overall cost of financing,
- partial release of existing collateral,
- adjustment of the debt/equity ratio to enhance stability.
Our solutions address both developers in transition phases and investors seeking to reposition their portfolios.
Flexible solutions for ambitious projects
PrestaFlex relies on a network of investors, institutions, and specialized players active in private debt and structured finance.
Our independence ensures an impartial, confidential, and results-driven approach, with a constant goal: securing the most suitable financing for each transaction.
