Ground rent

Alantra, the independent global mid-market investment banking firm, has provided strategic advice to Home From Home Care (“HFHC”) for a number of years. In conjunction with CBRE, Alantra helped HFHC on a ground rent transaction comprising 12 CQC registered healthcare properties operated by the specialist residential care provider. The transaction was financed by Alpha Real Capital on behalf of its Index Linked Income Fund.

Home From Home Care is an award winning specialist residential care provider, providing a range of specialist needs-led services for adults aged between 18 and 64. The assets have been built to provide flexible living accommodation and bespoke environments to enable individuals to achieve their potential. All five of the sites are centred in village and semi-urban locations and encourage individuals’ assimilation into their local communities.

Home From Home Care has been advised over time by Hoong Wey Woon, Justin Crowther and Matt Kumeta at Alantra.

Hoong Wey Woon, Partner and Head of Healthcare Real Assets, said, “Home From Home Care provides an exceptional standard of care for adults with learning disabilities, autism and complex physical and mental health. With its government-linked income, companies like HFHC can use ground rent to release value from the business and retain control of their real estate while providing investors with a predictable income stream over long periods of time and with a significant component of those returns linked to inflation.”
