Any property used as security, including your home, may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on a mortgage or any other debt secured on it.

Refurb or new build

Heavy refurbishment
Where you are looking to make changes to the use or the size of an existing building.

This can be via permitted development which allows for the conversion of a commercial property such as an office into residential flats, or where planning is obtained to allow for an extension (e.g. to the roof, or for a basement ‘dig out’).
Ground up
Where you are looking to purchase land, or demolish an existing building and replace with a residential or mixed-use scheme. (Please note that in these scenarios, the “land” will need to have the required planning approved)

Development Finance for:

Experienced property developers
New build, conversions and refurbishment
Mixed-use developments
Student Housing, Senior Living and Co-Living
Phased development schemes
