Maslow Capital provided a €647,000 bridging facility to support the acquisition and refurbishment of a five-bedroom family home in Rathfarnham, Dublin 14. The borrower required short-term financing to secure the property and undertake light refurbishment before transitioning to a rental model.

Project & Borrower Background

The property, constructed in 1947, is a spacious five-bedroom home located in a quiet cul-de-sac, featuring a 100-foot rear garden and off-street parking for two cars. The borrower intends to complete a light refurbishment and redecoration, enhancing the property’s condition before letting it on a per-room basis to maximise rental yield.

Key Highlights & Market Demand

• Prime Location: The property is situated in one of South Dublin’s most affluent areas, benefiting from close proximity to Marlay Park, St. Enda’s Park, Rathfarnham Village, and Rathfarnham Shopping Centre.
• Spacious Layout: The property extends to 190 sq. m., offering multiple living spaces, an open-plan kitchen/breakfast room, and a master bedroom with an en-suite and walk-in wardrobe.
• Rental Potential: The borrower’s plan to let the property on a per-room basis aligns with the strong demand for rental accommodation in Dublin, ensuring a high occupancy rate.

Results

Maslow Capital’s 15-month bridging loan enabled the borrower to swiftly acquire the property and commence light refurbishment works. The flexible financing solution supports the borrower’s plan to increase rental income and stabilise the asset, positioning it for long-term refinancing or sale.
