Over six months to open an account!

I needed to specifically open a LLoyds business account as I was to take over the running of some Shell service stations. Dealing with three different Lloyds business managers, being a British national and the sole director of a limited company with a very high personal Experion score, the account took almost seven months to be opened! Lloyds wanted to know in advance my turnover, which I was unable to provide as at that point I didnot even know which sites I would be allocated. Their delays effectively caused me to walk away from the deal. Reviewed on: 27th February 2024

I've been investing with Capital Rise for almost five years now, achieving good returns for a cash investment. Money is tied up for the length of each development (12 - 36 months typically) but if you split your capital across a range of investments you can receive regular payouts which I continually re-invest. The team give me a monthly update on my investment value and a quarterly report on the works carried out on each building development showing progress to date and anticipated completion time. The team are easy to talk with, helpful and each new investment opportunity is fully explained highlighting any potential risks that they see. A very professional organisation.

Great alternative investments with a professionally run business

I've been investing now for almost 4 years across a range of projects; had some £130 000 returned at an average 7.6% pa. and have a similar amount still invested. I receive regular updates on my investments from their professional customer relations team. Investments are vetted by their lending teams and are thoroughly reviewed by the investment committee before loans are approved. I feel my money is in safe hands. Reviewed on: 4th April 2022

Excellent Investment Opportunity for spare cash

Whilst I know CapitalRise investments are not for everyone, they can be a great investment for those more sophisticated investors, who are looking to receive a good return on cash but at a higher risk than other investments such as bank accounts or National Savings. It gives a means of investing in prime London property developments indirectly to small and medium sized investors alike. Their professional team thoroughly evaluate property developers projects in advance and then forward loans in tranches to developers as work progresses so they can fully monitor the safety of the investments. They build in the anticipated sales period for the development into the loan term period; the only downside, your investment is typically tied up until a property is sold, so this is not an easy access account, more a one - to - two year lock in. I have found CapitalRise easy to deal with, keeping me informed on my investments with regular updates on projects I have invested in. To-date I have invested in a number of projects, some still ongoing, and have been repaid on time with two returning over 8% pa. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
