According to our last Annual House Builders’ Survey, 29% of FMB members cited lack of available finance as a barrier to delivering new homes. To combat this we have produced this updated guide to development finance for small and medium-sized house builders in collaboration with UK Finance to help you to better understand development finance.
We know that accessing finance as a small, local house builder is typically one of the most critical elements of the development process and can be a real cause of concern. This guide will take you through the development process and highlight what financing options are available.
There are multiple considerations to make when planning a housebuilding development with finance being a critical element. By choosing to take finance from a lender you may be able to undertake a larger project than your own cash would allow. It may also enable you to fast track a scheme or work on more than one site at a time.
