Development Finance Advice And Guidance
Development finance is designed to support developers who need to make significant changes to their commercial property or project on which it stands or change the purpose of the property. This could be a new build scheme, conversion, renovation or part build.
Lending Requirements:
Lenders will take several factors into account when considering your application. Typically, lenders are looking for full details of the proposed development, including:
- Proposed contractor
- Build programme
- Satisfactory exit route
- Full planning consent and relevant documentation
Things To Consider
Besides the aforementioned lending requirements, there are a couple of other points to remember when looking at development finance:
- Loan amounts are based on a percentage of the gross development value (GDV) at the end of the work.
- Development funding loans are normally for a period from six to eighteen months.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have any questions regarding development finance? See some of the answers to our most frequently asked questions below. Alternatively, you can get in touch with our Manchester based team directly with any queries or concerns you may have.
How much funding can I get for development finance?
We’ll assist with a professional valuation to break down how much funding you can get based on three key areas. The current value of the property, build costs and gross development values (GDV) will determine the amount of funding you can get.
The lenders we work with will use this valuation to determine the maximum amount they can lend you. Deals are determined on a case by case basis. Regardless, there will always be enough funding to complete the entire development project.
How long do the terms for development finance last?
Terms typically last between six months to two years. If the loan is for a simple refurbishment project, the loan may only need to cover six months for the site and building costs. A larger multi unit project will likely need a loan that covers a longer time scale. Book a consultation with our team to discuss likely loan terms for your project.
