A&B PROPERTY VENTURES LIMITED
Opportunity 69/100 (strong), bankability 75/100. Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Biggest value-creation lever: Cash flow review and working-capital discipline.

- · Single lender — cleanest path to refinance.
- · Cashflow trend is negative — lender view likely cautious.
