It is aimed primarily at private owners who want to <strong>unlock part of their property\u2019s value<\/strong> <strong>without<\/strong> having to sell. In the <strong>capital stack<\/strong>, it sits <strong>between<\/strong> equity and the <strong>senior mortgage<\/strong>\u2014a <strong>financial lever<\/strong> often used for <strong>personal projects<\/strong> or <strong>quick transactions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This type of financing offers <strong>unusually high flexibility<\/strong>: where the bank says no, mezzanine steps in. It enables the funding of <strong>specific undertakings<\/strong>\u2014such as <strong>purchasing a property abroad<\/strong>, <strong>buying a yacht<\/strong>, <strong>wealth investments<\/strong>, <strong>entrepreneurial projects<\/strong>, or simply a <strong>bridge loan<\/strong> until a sale or <strong>full refinancing<\/strong> is completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_concrete_example_turning_property_value_into_opportunity\"><\/span>A concrete example: turning property value into opportunity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A typical case:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your house is worth <strong>CHF 2 million<\/strong> today.

Your bank declines\u2014citing your age, the interest-rate environment, or revised internal policies. <strong>Nevertheless<\/strong>, your property\u2019s <strong>net value<\/strong> is <strong>CHF 1.3 million<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With <strong>MultiCredit\u2019s mezzanine financing<\/strong>, you can activate this <strong>idle capital<\/strong>. The loan is registered as a <strong>second-rank mortgage<\/strong>, based on a <strong>careful valuation<\/strong> of the property, <strong>clear contracts<\/strong>, and <strong>transparent terms<\/strong>.
