Since its launch, L’Amandier has bucked the recession, by maintaining a good pace of construction and continuing to attract buyers and positive media interest. During a period when banks have become increasingly cautious in terms of lending for properties, L’Amandier stands out as a safe and secure investment that lenders are comfortable to back. MHK continue to show their commitment to clients by providing helpful solutions. Just Us Mortgages is one such solution.

Based in the City of London, Managing Director Dominic Hennessy (pictured left) commented “L’Amandier is just the kind if investment we like to partner with… The development has been managed carefully, the investment product is robust and it has excellent potential for positive growth”. He and his team at Just Us specialise in mortgages for investment and second home properties. They have built a client base of lawyers, doctors, surveyors, company directors, amongst numerous other professionals, through their long-term experience, clear understanding of clients’ needs, and the effective solutions they provide. All their brokers have a minimum of five years’ experience, excellent working relationships with lenders and a superior knowledge of lending criteria.

Sourcing a mortgage for most properties right now can be a frustrating and time consuming exercise and we have recently experienced their no nonsense and highly proactive approach to finding the right solution when one of MHK’s clients came up against challenges with his financing.

Zach Dovey, a UK surgeon, is determined to purchase a property at the L’Amandier resort. He commented, “I saw L’Amandier and completely fell in love with it. I made up my mind that I had to buy, not just for such a spectacular a second home, but as a sound investment.” He is building a portfolio of properties and is particularly interested in Morocco as it is one of the markets that has withstood the recession well and as he reasoned, “…this bodes well for the country as the international markets start to grow again”.

Zach was looking for a mortgage structure that consisted of 60% non-domestic mortgage and 40% UK.  “My challenge was to find the right financing to suit my situation. Just Us Mortgages and MHK have worked with me to help ensure I do exactly that. My time is limited and it has been enormously beneficial having a mortgage broker on side who is not only proactive and experienced, but who communicates effectively and works well with the developer to look at the situation from different angles. It has been a real team effort, and everything is in place now to go-ahead with purchasing my villa.”

With projected rental return starting at 6% and solid capital growth prospects as L’Amandier evolves into one of Morocco’s most desirable destinations, I would say Zach is wise to make the effort to overcome obstacles when it comes to owning one of the L’Amandier villas.

As a result, October proved to be a busy month for us on many different levels. Construction work on site continues on schedule and we have, to date, six site visits lined up for clients interested in our remaining villas at L’Amandier. They will be visiting to view the completed villas, get a feel for the stunning location and experience the wonderfully warm local hospitality.

They are right to take the opportunity as interest levels are currently high and we have only four remaining villas available for purchase.
