Bridging facility secured for Samri Pharmacy
The Christie Finance Real Estate team curates bespoke bridging facility for local pharmacy in Rochford, Essex, with the deal completed within seven days.


We were recently approached by a client in urgent need of funding to consolidate unsecured debts and repay creditors. Understanding the time-sensitive nature of the request, we acted swiftly to structure a short-term facility that met the client’s needs without delay.
The facility was secured against two unencumbered properties, a pharmacy freehold and a buy-to-let investment. By leveraging the strength of these assets, we were able to proceed without the need for formal property valuations, which allowed us to significantly accelerate the process.
From the moment of initial enquiry, we moved quickly. Legal instruction was issued on the same day, and the transaction was completed within just seven days. This was made possible through close collaboration between all parties involved, including the solicitors and the lender, whose pragmatic and flexible approach was instrumental in achieving such a rapid turnaround.
Ram, who led the transaction, commented: “I am pleased we were able to support our client with a facility that not only consolidated his debts but also released working capital for his business. The solicitors acted with great efficiency, and the lender’s willingness to take a view on several requirements, typically considered non-negotiable, enabled us to complete the deal with time to spare.”
This case is a strong example of how we work closely with our clients and partners to deliver tailored financial solutions, even under tight time constraints.
