Knocking down barriers: How strategic bridging opened the way to a major development

  • 21 August 2025

Funded:

£379,200

Location:

North East

Property Type:

Residential

Funding:

Development Finance

The borrower needed £379,200 net to purchase two properties, a public house and a residential house each with a purchase price of £237,000. He was using some of his own funds for the deposit. The purpose of purchasing these properties was to demolish them to allow a suitable access road to a development to the rear of the properties of which he already owns the land with planning agreed for 14 houses with a pre-application in for a further 12. These properties will not be demolished whilst our facility is in place. We took a charge over both properties being purchased along with the land he owns, and the land valuation came in higher than anticipated. The development finance on his existing unencumbered land will then be arranged redeeming our facility.
