What is development finance & how does it work?
Development finance is funding for building new rental and owner-occupied homes.
Development finance lets you cover a large share of the build costs and keep the project moving without needless delay. We structure the financing around the project's particular circumstances and drive the process from application to disbursement.
What can development finance cover?
Development finance can, for example, be used for:
- Larger rental housing projects — for long-term management or sale on completion
- Owner-occupied housing projects — from semi-detached houses to apartment blocks
- Conversion projects — turning existing premises into housing
Frequently asked questions about development finance
How long is the term?
The term is set to match the project timetable and is normally 12–24 months. The capital is drawn down in stages as the project progresses.
What is required to qualify?
The important thing is that the project holds together: a robust budget with your own equity in it, a contractor able to deliver, experience of similar projects, and a clear plan for how the credit will be repaid on completion. The company's creditworthiness is also taken into account.
Can development finance be combined with other funding?
Yes. The credit is often one piece of a larger structure. It can be combined with acquisition finance when the land or property is bought, and then replaced by long-term financing or repaid on sale once the project is complete.
How quickly do we get an answer?
Once the application is submitted, indicative terms are issued within twelve hours.
Which projects can development finance cover?
We arrange financing for new-build rental and owner-occupied homes and commercial property, as well as projects converting existing premises into housing. We structure everything from small semi-detached schemes to apartment blocks with hundreds of units.
