Real Estate Finance
in Luxembourg

Bridge and development finance for Luxembourg real estate, structured through European holding vehicles where relevant.

Luxembourg is a compact but structurally important market for European real estate finance. The domestic property market is supply-constrained and value-dense, particularly in Luxembourg City, while the jurisdiction's holding-structure ecosystem (SCSp, SOPARFI, RAIF) makes it a frequent location for cross-border real estate vehicles holding assets across France, Germany, the UK and beyond.

Passy Partners arranges bridge and development finance both for Luxembourg-located assets and for cross-border transactions held through Luxembourg structures. Borrowers include private investors, family offices, fund managers and developers active in residential and selective commercial assets.

Regulatory

The CSSF (Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier) supervises banks, investment firms and regulated funds in Luxembourg, including RAIF service providers and AIFMs. Mortgage lending is conducted by CSSF-supervised institutions. Passy Partners operates as an arranger working with Luxembourg banks, debt funds and AIFMs, and does not act as a regulated lender or licensed credit intermediary in Luxembourg.

Note

SCSp (special limited partnership), SOPARFI (société de participations financières) and RAIF (Reserved Alternative Investment Fund) structures are widely used for European real estate holding via Luxembourg, with implications for lender eligibility, security packages (share pledges, account pledges) and exit mechanics. Structuring is coordinated with the borrower's Luxembourg counsel at term sheet stage.
