How much do we lend?

The maximum loan amount you can borrow is up to 60% of the proven Gross Development Value (GDV) of the finished development. Within this parameter we can fund up to 50%-60% of the initial purchase and 100% of the build costs in stage payments. This is again subject to being sub 60% against the overall end value / GDV .

E.g. if you are purchasing a development for £300,000 with 50% of your own capital, build costs of £350,000 and a GDV of £1,000,000 , we would fund the remaining 50% of the purchase (£150,0000) + 100% of the build costs in stage payments. Total loan £500,000 / LTV 50%.

What interest rates can you expect to pay?

As we lend our own funds, there are no set rates for our property developing loans. All loan applications are assessed individually and interest rates will be determined according to the following:

  • The location of the development
  • The loan to value %
  • End Product
  • Loan amount £
  • Previous experience
  • Loan Term / duration

Once the loan is live, Interest is charged on a monthly basis on the total amount drawdown, this is then rolled into the loan. We do not require our interest payments to be serviced monthly, unlike other lenders, it is simply paid upon the exit in one sum, whether it be a sale or refinance of the property.

What is a bridging loan?

Bridging loans are short-term loans designed to “bridge” the gap between buying a property and securing a long-term financing solution. Bridging loans are secured against properties and are designed to be repaid quickly so you can also expect to get a decision very quickly.
