Why borrow with Investec?

Investing in commercial real estate such as offices, mixed-use developments, industrial, and warehouse developments can provide a sustainable and scalable way of building wealth. Our relationship managers take an entrepreneurial approach to commercial real estate lending and can help intermediaries on the island explore a range of lending options. Our solutions are designed to meet a range of complex structural requirements across a wide spectrum of borrowing needs.

Flexible funding for individual needs

No two commercial real estate investments are the same. And we’ll never offer you an 'off-the-shelf' solution. We’ll only offer our expertise and entrepreneurial know-how to build a unique commercial real estate lending package that helps you seize the opportunity now, for the long term.

Grow your wealth, your way

Our lending options are structured around your specific circumstances and tailored to support your or your client’s individual aspirations. Whether it’s a new office for your own business, or a long-term investment in a mixed-use development, our relationship managers will talk you through the options that best support your goals.

How this commercial real estate lending works

Your commercial investment will be unique. We’ll consider the loan to value of the loan, with affordability from the rental income received as well as all pertinent factors to offer a truly bespoke commercial property lending solution.

Our Isle of Man business is a representative office which means that the money you borrow and account(s) you open are with the bank in Guernsey.  Your banking relationship manager remains based in the Isle of Man.
