We present a new project that consists of the granting of a loan to partially finance the construction costs of a luxury development of 5 blocks with a total of 19 homes in the Finca Cortesín complex, Casares, Málaga. 


The project contemplates the construction of a development composed of 5 blocks with a total of 19 homes, one per floor, located in the vicinity of the exclusive Finca Cortesín Hotel. All homes will have sea views, most will have a private pool and all will have private terraces, in addition to a communal pool with sea views and access to all the facilities of the Finca Cortesin 5* hotel, one of the most exclusive luxury complexes in Europe. Residents will have an internal cleaning, security and maintenance services team.


The project will have a Building License prior to the signing of the Urbanitae loan, with earthworks started in September 2025. The developer expects to complete the project within a construction period of 20 to 24 months.


The development is located a 5-minute drive from the 5* Hotel and Golf Finca Cortesín, within the Finca Cortesín complex, an exclusive complex with world-renowned services and golf course. 


Casares, in the heart of the Costa del Sol, combines a natural environment with proximity to exclusive destinations such as Marbella and Sotogrande. In this privileged enclave is the Finca Cortesín Hotel, an international benchmark for luxury and exclusivity, whose prestige and first-class services provide a unique added value to any residential development. The location within this complex guarantees exclusivity, security and an incomparable appeal for a high-income public looking to acquire a home in one of the most distinguished areas of the Mediterranean.

Project description

The manager of this project is GRUPO ARUA, a company whose management team has over 23 years of experience in the real estate investment sector. In recent years, it has focused its activity on the premium segment of the market, specializing in projects aimed at high net worth clients. Its deep knowledge of the sector and access to exclusive opportunities have allowed it to carry out acquisitions and developments obtaining high returns.


The La Algaba project represents the continuation of the Las Albercas project, a promotion with very similar characteristics that was developed and delivered by the manager with great success. In addition, the group owns 11 single-family plots in Finca Cortesín, of which 4 have already been developed and sold, thus consolidating its trajectory in one of the most prestigious enclaves on the Costa del Sol.


The asset is developed on a plot of 10,722 m² acquired by the project manager with its own funds. The plot will have a Building License granted in October 2025.


The project manager has committed a total capital of c. € 4.7m to date and will commit c. € 5.5m additional throughout the project. Urbanitae investors will enter the project through the granting of a mortgage loan committed in up to 5 tranches, to finance part of the construction costs and refinance part of the initial costs already incurred by the developer (c. € 800k). The Tranche A will have a fixed annual rate of 11.25% and a term of 30 months with possible extension of 6 months in month 30.


The exit of Urbanitae investors will occur through the sale of the homes. With the amount obtained from the sale of 11 of the 19 units, we estimate that the developer will have sufficient liquidity to fully repay the loan. 


The marketing of the asset will be carried out directly through the sales office of Finca Cortesín. This sales point captures all customers who access the Hotel facilities. Conversations are also being held with some of the most important agencies with the most presence in the luxury segment of the Costa del Sol.


STRUCTURE


This operation will be structured via debt, where Urbanitae Investors will grant a fixed rate loan to the company ARUA PROYECTOS INMOBILIARIOS, S.L.


The total amount of the gross loan will amount to an amount of 20,500,000 €, of which Urbanitae investors will contribute up to a maximum of 5,000,000 € per year. The total loan will be structured in five tranches, whose main characteristics are the following (you can consult more information in the document "Fundamental Data of the Investment"):


• Total loan amount: up to a maximum of 20,500,000 €, committed by Urbanitae and co-investors in five tranches:

 I. A first tranche or Tranche A, for an amount of up to 2,475,000 €, raised by Urbanitae investors. 

II. A second tranche or Tranche B, for an amount of up to 2,915,000 €, of which 2,525,000 € will be raised through Urbanitae investors and the remaining 390,000 € will be contributed by "co-investors" who join the existing debt taking part in Tranche B.

III. A third tranche or Tranche C, for an amount of up to 2,165,000 €, raised by "co-investors" who join the existing debt taking part in Tranche C.

IV. A fourth tranche or Tranche D, for an amount of up to € 5,015,000, of which 5,000,000 € will be raised through Urbanitae investors and the remaining 15,000 € will be contributed by "co-investors" who join the existing debt taking part in Tranche D

V. A fifth tranche or Tranche E, for an amount of up to € 7,930,000, raised by "co-investors" who join the existing debt taking part in Tranche E.

Simple annual fixed interest rate of 11.25% for Tranche A.

Loan term: 30 months + 6 months extension for Tranche A.

• Interest and principal of the loan will be paid at maturity (interest will begin to accrue from the moment of formalization of the loan contract).

• The part of the loan intended to finance construction works will be disposed of by the developer through work certifications on a monthly basis, subject to the favorable report issued by the Project Monitor.

Total early repayment will be allowed at any time, subject to a minimum return of interest for Tranche A equivalent to 21 months of interest. 


Regarding the loan guarantees, the following is established in the financing contract: 


First rank mortgage real guarantee on the property subject to the financing, with Mortgage Responsibility of 140%. 

Private contract of first rank pledge on the bank accounts of the Borrower SPV destined to the project to finance.

Cash sweep for 100% of the sale amount both total and partial of the underlying guarantee.


As in all debt projects, the figure of the Project Monitor is incorporated into this project, who will review the work certifications, progress in construction, possible deviations in time / cost and who will in turn approve the monthly loan disbursements.


WHY INVEST?


There are several reasons to invest in this project:

First rank mortgage guarantee on the underlying asset, located in the prestigious enclosure of Finca Cortesín, Casares, Málaga and with access to the Hotel facilities. 

• The return of 11.25% per annum, with a minimum return equivalent to 21 months of interest (19.7%).

Manager's experience promoting in the area, with a close relationship with the Hotel and access to internal sales points. He has developed a very similar promotion that has been delivered with great success. 

Building license obtained prior to the signing of the loan and earth movements initiated, so no delays in the start of the works are expected. 


MARKET


A market study has been carried out to determine if the sale prices proposed by the manager are reasonable. In turn, a commercial Due Diligence has been carried out by an external agent who has issued a favorable report corroborating the proposed prices. 

There is information available on the market within the "Sales Witnesses" documentation, where you will find a list of homes for sale in the area.


WHEN WILL I RECOVER THE INVESTED MONEY?


The estimated term of this project is 30 months with a possible extension of 6 months in month 30.


October 2025, granting of the first Tranche of the loan by Urbanitae investors to the promoter to refinance part of the initial costs incurred and partially finance the construction.


Last quarter 2027, completion of construction works.


First quarter 2028, delivery of the homes and repayment of the loan to Urbanitae.


RISKS


All investments carry a risk. Below are the main risks identified for this project:

• Commercial risk derived from a possible delay in the sale of assets, which could cause delays in the repayment of the debt. This risk is mitigated by the promoter's experience marketing in the area and access to internal sales points of the Hotel, as well as the backing of the favorable report issued during the commercial due diligence, which validates the sale price set in the Business Plan.

• Risk of deviations in the project deadlines due to possible unforeseen events during the construction phase. To mitigate this risk, the promoter has the support of a Project Manager in charge of the rigorous supervision and control of the execution schedule ensuring the fulfillment of the established milestones. Likewise, it is an experienced manager in similar real estate products on the Costa del Sol.

• Risk of deviations in construction costs derived from unforeseen contingencies. This risk has been contemplated in the Loan Contract by incorporating a condition precedent to the lifting of the successive Tranches of contribution of own funds to cover any possible cost overrun in the work.

• Possibility of change of the agreed conditions. This risk includes potential substantial changes that take place from the start of the financing campaign until the formalization of the loan contract, in which case the project would be canceled and the investment returned.
