AnotherPaul Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Out of adversity comes a gleaming business opportunity! Perception being everything Foxtons will surely snap up my life sized cut out agents mounted on wheels, made to move back and forth by battery powered pulleys.Will accept ?360m for 2% stake etc. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/4042-goodbye-foxtons/page/3/#findComment-183311 Share on other sites More sharing options...

macroban Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 Foxtons is now in breach of its banking covenants.Anyone who uses Foxtons as an agent to manage their borrow-to-let property might consider reviewing the arrangement.

Mick Mac Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 You really have it in for Foxtons macroban. Why so much interest? is it purely estate agent driven? Anyway - I'm sure you have alerted us to Foxtons having breached its covenants before. Its by no means the end for a business, just a renegotiation of their debt facilities, although it makes it more difficult to survive.They have recently sold a house on our road and very quickly at that (I did think it was undervalued even in the current market) - also it seems they have more activity in their office recently, so I'm not sure what to think about their future.

Mick Mac Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Macroban has a habit of just posting a few words or a link and expecting others to chase up info. Please Macroban, just tell us what it is you are on about in your post. We do not all have a fixation with Foxtons failing.

mikeb Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 A new chapter in Foxton's history - from City AM this morning:Estate agent Foxtons was taken over by its lenders yesterday, after its private equity owner agreed to a refinancing deal that saw its stake in the firm massively diluted.BC Partners bought the chain that was synonymous with the London property boom for around ?360m in 2007 from founder Jon Hunt, who offloaded the business at the top of the market.But yesterday the private equity house handed lenders led by Bank of America and Mizuho a majority stake in the business. BC Partners will retain the largest minority stake and has pumped less than ?50m of new equity into the estate agents.Under the deal, Foxton's debt has been cut from ?300m to ?120m. Most of the debt was from ?260m of bank loans to fund BC Partners' buyout.
