Macfarlanes has advised ING and Santander on a £64m facility to fund the acquisition of Bond Street House by specialist real estate management firm Meyer Bergman, the pan-European investment manager specialised in retail real estate.

Bond Street House is a prime location property, on Bond Street in London’s Mayfair and comprises high end office and luxury retail space.

The Macfarlanes team was led by banking and finance partner Jat Bains, with real estate partner Clare Breeze.

Jat Bains comments: “There are robust signs of strength in the real estate finance market and this deal is another signal of that growth, which it is great to see. This particular matter played to the combined strengths of expertise across our real estate and finance teams and we were very happy to be involved."
