Real Life Options operates 4 CQC-registered care homes with about 31 beds across 3 counties in England, a small group. Around 100% of its rated homes are rated Good or Outstanding. For an acquirer, lender or investor the group's covenant rests on that trading base and bed stock, and its CQC rating profile is the clearest read on operational quality across the portfolio.
Financing a group like Real Life Options
We arrange finance relevant to a group of this scale: portfolio acquisition and whole-company funding, refinancing of an existing facility, development capital for new beds, and sale-and-leaseback to release freehold value while the operator keeps trading.
