There are moments in a real estate project where traditional banks are just structurally reluctant to commit. Acquiring an asset before licensing is finalized is one. Infrastructure works ahead of full project approval is another.

That's exactly where demand for alternative capital has grown. Developers need capital that moves at the pace of the opportunity in front of them, not at the pace of a credit committee built around fully de-risked assets.

This is a gap we work in regularly: structuring financing for the phases where bank criteria and timing simply don't line up with what a project actually needs, so a developer isn't forced to slow down or let the opportunity slip.

The thread running through all of these situations is the same. Faster decisions, more flexible structures, and terms built around what the project actually needs, not a standard template.

If your next phase falls into one of these gaps, let's talk about what's possible.

We structured a €2,315,000 financing facility to support the acquisition of an urban plot in Maia, in the Porto metropolitan area, for the development of Twins Maia: a new multi-family residential project with four blocks, 76 apartments across T1, T2 and T3 typologies, garages, and common areas.

The operation was set up as a first-degree mortgage loan, with a 15-month term and 11.00% annual nominal interest, on a bullet repayment structure. At signing, the promoter had already contributed around 45% of the required funds in equity, €1,866,905, which said a lot about their commitment to the project. The financing is secured against an asset valued at €4,388,800.

This is a case that says a lot about a phase where traditional banks rarely step in: land acquisition, ahead of full licensing. Structured capital at this stage lets a promoter secure the asset and keep the project moving on its own timeline, instead of waiting on someone else's.

Working on a land acquisition or an early-stage development? Let's talk about what's financeable.

Owning property directly comes with three costs a lot of investors underestimate: illiquidity, the burden of managing it, and the risk of having everything concentrated in one asset.

Through Equity & Co-Investment structures, we give investors exposure to real estate development without buying, managing, or exiting a property directly.

Capital goes in alongside the promoter, into a specific, defined operation, with terms, guarantees, and a timeline agreed upfront. No tenants to manage. No single asset carrying all the risk.

It's simply a different way to hold real estate as an asset class: structured, clearly defined, and aligned with a promoter who has real skin in the game.

If diversifying into real estate without taking on the operational load is something you're thinking about, we'd welcome the conversation.

Closing update from Aveiro: Casa Lígia, Phase II.

Structured in Portugal through one of our exclusive partners, on behalf of promoter Grupo Loureiro, this operation delivered a €1,000,000 bridge facility to complete the development. The terms: a 6-month term, 9% to 11% annual interest, secured by a first-degree mortgage with an LTV of 70%.

Casa Lígia is an upper-segment residential project in central Aveiro, 14 apartments and two office spaces, built around the restoration of a 1920 building designed by architect Francisco Augusto da Silva Rocha and paired with a contemporary residential upgrade.

We structured this one at a genuinely decisive moment. Construction was essentially finished, with only one apartment still available for sale. The €1,000,000 facility covered what was needed to complete the development and bridge the transition to the deeds. Existing presales already cover both the bank facility and the investor financing, and the operation is secured against an asset valued at €3,835,300.

This is exactly what short-term capital is for: closing the gap at the final stage of a development without disrupting the completion timeline or the exit strategy.

If you have a project approaching completion and need a bridge to the finish line, let's talk.

Not every project fits inside a single bank product, and honestly, it shouldn't have to.

We work with three core solutions, used on their own or combined depending on where a project stands and how much risk is involved:

Equity & Co-Investment, capital that sits alongside the promoter and shares in the project's upside. Alternative Financing, flexible structures for phases banks typically shy away from, like acquiring an asset before it's fully licensed. Bridge Capital, short-term capital that covers a specific gap, from completion through to refinancing.

Used the right way, these tools do two useful things. They let a developer optimize equity across a pipeline, and they cut down on how much a project depends on one lender's timing and criteria.

The right mix always comes down to the project itself. That's usually the first thing we talk about.

10/09/2026

Every real estate project needs something a little different at every stage, and most of that need doesn't fit neatly into one bank product.

At Slice of Capital, that's really the whole job. We look at what a project actually needs, whether that's land acquisition, development, infrastructure, or refinancing, and we build the capital stack around it. Not the other way around.

In practice, that can mean equity, co-investment, bridge financing, or a mix of all three. Sometimes it complements a bank facility. Sometimes, depending on the phase, it replaces one entirely.

For developers, what that usually means in practice is less equity tied up, more flexibility, and less dependency on a single lender's timing and criteria.

If your next phase doesn't quite fit the standard bank box, we'd be happy to talk it through.

Another closing worth sharing: Silves Hills, Algarve.

We supported the financing platform in framing,, structuring the operation, and presenting it to the right financing partners, then stayed on through to closing. The result was a €4,000,000 real estate financing facility, secured by a first-degree mortgage over the asset, with a 12-month term.

Silves Hills is a large-scale residential development near the historic town of Silves, spread across more than 64 hectares. It includes 154 private villas and a genuinely extensive leisure offer: pools, tennis and padel courts, beach tennis, volleyball, a clubhouse, restaurant, pool bar, gym, sauna and yoga area. The low density is one of its defining features.

The detailed development plan is approved. At the time of the operation, Phase 1 already had 20 signed sale and purchase agreements, roughly 40% of the units in that phase. According to the promoter's Business Plan, the project has an estimated Gross Development Value of around €170 million.

This is the kind of work we like to do: take a real capital need, turn it into a financeable operation, find the right partner, and see it through to closing, carefully and without shortcuts.

A good financing proposal is only the starting point. What actually gets a project funded is what happens after: the ongoing strategic support that carries it through to a closed deal.

That's what we've walked through this week: flexibility in how we structure, efficiency in how we align interests, cost structures built for real value, and support that doesn't stop once the proposal is sent.

If you're ready to turn your project into a structured opportunity, let's talk.

A project's size or complexity shouldn't determine whether you get a fair cost structure.

Every proposal we put together is built to deliver real value without cutting into quality or expected results, because we measure our own success by what our clients achieve, not by the size of the deal. That's the thinking behind every long-term partnership we build.

25/08/2026

A financing structure only works long-term if both sides want the same outcome.

That's what efficiency means to us: building the bridge between developers and investors so interests stay aligned from the first details through final negotiation, with transparency and results driving every step, not just the close.

The goal isn't a signed term sheet. It's a structure both sides are still glad they agreed to a year later.
