Yorkshire law firm Ramsdens Solicitors has welcomed partner Adam Waite to lead its real estate finance offering.

Waite joins from commercial law firm Tyr Law where he was head of real estate finance. He has over 13 years’ experience in real estate and banking law.

He advises both lenders and borrowers in real estate and social housing finance matters such as bridging and development finance as well as term loans. This has included working on a £70m refinance deal involving 40 properties across Yorkshire and the Midlands occupied by a well-known coffee brand and fast-food outlet.

Waite also acts regularly for domestic and international lenders as well as institutional investors on development and investment finance transactions alongside loan book sales and purchases.

Based in Ramsdens’ Leeds office, he will develop the firm’s specialist real estate finance offering, working alongside colleagues to support existing clients and build relationships with lenders and borrowers across the region.

Waite commented: 'Ramsdens has a longstanding reputation throughout Yorkshire for its collaborative culture and commitment to providing market-leading commercial advice.

'Many of my clients are based in the region, so joining a firm with that established presence felt like a natural fit.

'There’s a real opportunity to work with highly capable colleagues and develop a dedicated real estate finance offering to complement the market-leading property expertise at the firm.'
