Development finance built around the project.
Development finance is built around the project — the lender needs to understand it, not just the land it sits on.
Development finance is built around the project — the lender needs to understand it, not just the land it sits on.
Development finance is not simply about borrowing against a piece of land. The lender needs to understand the project.
A development can have strong end values and still be difficult to fund if the cost base, equity position or exit strategy does not work. Finance should therefore be considered alongside the feasibility rather than after it.
