Risk Factors

Development Bridge financing, Development Loan financing and Refurbishment Loan financing will only be provided after an assessment of the value of the properties to which the loans are to be applied and an assessment of the potential borrower’s ability to service and repay the loan.  Loans will be provided on a secured basis. In the event that loans are or cannot be repaid, Puma may enforce the security against the borrower and any shortfall in amounts owed to Puma may be subject to separate legal proceedings.

Borrowers seeking loan financing should therefore determine their own ability to service and repay the loan and their capacity to absorb any diminution in the capital value of the properties to which the loan has been applied.
