A property investor and developer approached CD Property Finance for help with funding an unencumbered building consisting of three freehold flats. The investor required funds for a further scheme but had not identified that acquisition at the time. Because of the uncertainty regarding the use of the funds and the fact that the flats were freehold there was limited interest from lenders but we were able to arrange a 57% LTV loan over 25 years at a 3.70% margin over base rate to enable the client to “hunt” for a new opportunity.
NEW JOINT VENTURE FINANCE
CD Property Finance has sourced a 100% finance scheme for residential development. The scheme must show a minimum profit on cost of 25% with a borrowing requirement of no more than £5m. This scheme is for experienced builders and developers and is available throughout mainland UK. Minimum loan £500k.
This is an unrivalled opportunity for developers to kick start schemes that formerly required substantial developer cash input.
