The developer PROMUGAL UNIPESSOAL LDA is requesting financing through wecity to finance the construction costs of a luxury single-family house, located in Arco da Calheta, Funchal, Madeira Island.

The asset has an area of 522.18m², with a gross construction area of 205.20m² and has a building permit, which was granted on August 4, 2020 and renewed on June 16, 2025.

According to the appraisal, and as of January 2026, the work is currently 38% completed.

The project will be financed through a fixed-rate mortgage loan of €1,000,000, which will be secured by a first mortgage, a personal guarantee, and an additional guarantee on land owned by the developer, with a term of 18 months (+6 months possible extension). This is the first of two financing phases, which may amount to a total of €1,650,000.

To date, the developer has contributed its own funds, which, also taking into account the acquisition of the land, amount to €1,220,000.00.

The investors’ exit from wecity is planned with the sale of the property once the work is 100% completed, the corresponding permits are obtained and the property is handed over to the buyer.

Through wecity you can participate in a fixed rate loan operation with an annual interest rate of 12% for an estimated term of 18 months (6 months mandatory) with a possibility of extension for an additional 6 months.

The payment of interest plus the return of the invested capital will be made at maturity.

The project

Location and surroundings

The property is in Arco da Calheta (municipality of Calheta, west of Madeira), on a plot with outstanding views of the Atlantic. It is located on Rua da Serra de Água, a road that connects to the center of Calheta and the marina.

The environment is mainly of recent detached villas, often with swimming pool, oriented to the premium/luxury segment and highly demanded by foreign buyers due to the mild and sunny climate, south orientation and open views. The area has good road connections (Regional Road and Via Exprés), limited public transport and easy parking, although most properties have private parking.

The loan to be made to the developer is €1,000,000, which implies a Loan to Value (LTV) on Completed Building Assumption (HET) of 55.00% and a LTV 1st disposal of 33.15%.

Pre-contractual cooling-off period for inexperienced investors

Inexperienced investors have a cooling-off period of four (4) days during which they can, at any time, revoke or withdraw, at any time, from their investment offer or expression of interest in the participatory financing offer without having to justify their decision and without incurring a penalty. The cooling-off period begins at the moment when the potential inexperienced investor makes an investment offer or expresses interest and expires four calendar days from that date. To exercise their right of revocation, Investors may send an email to the following address: reclamaciones@wecity.io, filling in the “subject” field of the email as follows: “REVOCATION – Name of the Opportunity – Full name of the Investor”. In the event that a monetary contribution has been made in connection with the financing offer, this amount will be returned as soon as possible to the wallet that, as an investor/user of the ‘WECITY’ Platform, has been opened in the Payment Institution ‘LEMONWAY’.

Credit risk

Credit risk is defined as the loss that may occur in the event of non-payment by the counterparty in a financial transaction. In this specific case, the risk that the Promoter will not pay the principal and/or interest of the Loan.

Sector risk Risks inherent to the specific sector.

These risks may be caused, for example, by a change in macroeconomic circumstances, a reduction in demand in the sector in which the participatory financing project operates and dependencies on other sectors. In any case, the investor must bear in mind that adverse economic conditions or cyclical changes may lead to a weakening of the Promoter’s ability to meet its financial commitments in relation to the loan.

Risk of default

The risk that the project developer may be subject to insolvency proceedings and other events affecting the project or the project developer that result in the loss of the investment for the investors. These risks may be caused by a variety of factors, including, but not limited to: (serious) change in macroeconomic circumstances, mismanagement, lack of experience, fraud, financing not fitting with the corporate purpose, failure in the product launch or lack of liquidity. In the event of the Promoter’s bankruptcy, the holders of the credits will be considered as credits with special privilege, as they are secured by a mortgage guarantee, in accordance with the cataloguing and order of priority of credits established by Royal Legislative Decree 1/2020, of May 5, which approves the revised text of the Bankruptcy Law (hereinafter, the “Bankruptcy Law”), except for those amounts that, in accordance with Article 272 of the Bankruptcy Law, should be classified either as ordinary credit or as subordinated credit, as appropriate.

Risk of lower or delayed return

The risk that the return will be lower than expected or that the project will default on the payment of principal or interest.

Risk of illiquidity of the investment

The risk that investors will not be able to sell their investment. There is no active trading market for the loan, so it is possible that the investor will not be able to find a third party to whom to assign the loan.

Other risks

Risks that are, among others, beyond the control of the project developer, such as political or regulatory risks.
