Development Finance

For developers, the ability to source the correct funding structure can be the difference between success and failure. Rate and cost are certainly important factors. However, a ‘cheap’ lender that provide zero flexibility can be quite a costly option further down the line when issues arise on development projects. Planning and construction absolutely come with so many risks attached so partnering with the right finance provider is a key factor. 

Structured Finance Advice for Developers

The P10 Commercial team is experienced at helping property developers to find the right funding solutions for property developers that operate in the luxury space.

In this particular situation, we were approached to arrange funding for an extremely high value, single unit on the prestigious Wentworth Estate in Surrey.  

There are always issues to overcome on funding development sites, but the main thing that was making this deal slightly more complex than it should have been was due to the fact the capital value on this development were extremely high and it was a single unit being funded. A lot of lenders in the market stay clear of high value developments, which means there is a greater level of diligence needed from the adviser when advising our client what route to take.

P10 Commercial have delivered numerous high end developments and are extremely well versed in delivering the absolute best lending solutions in the market for these niche deals. In this instance we was able to deliver the following structure for our delighted client.
