Liz Saxton has more than 30 years of experience advising on a wide range of finance transactions, with a particular focus on UK and cross-border real estate and funds finance.

Liz regularly advises borrowers of all types, including several listed property companies, cutting-edge joint venture structures, and real estate funds, on the full range of their debt financing requirements. These include subscription and equity bridge facilities (both in and outside the real estate sector), facilities for investment and development properties, and corporate-level term and revolving facilities across all market sectors, including retail, offices, industrial, logistics, and residential.
