⏱️Bought a property at auction? The clock just started.

❗Fixed completion time. No extensions. No flexibility. Miss the deadline and you lose your deposit (typically 10% of the purchase price).

➡️A standard residential mortgage takes around 8 weeks although it could be longer. The maths doesn't work.

💪🏼This is what auction bridging finance was built for!

✅Got an auction in mind? Get your finance sorted first.

❓Coming to the end of your latest project can throw up some tricky challenges when it comes to the finance.

➡️If sales are slow but your development loan still needs to be paid off, bridging can be just the solution you need. A bridge covers the expiring development finance once the scheme is complete, giving you time to sell at the right price instead of forcing a sale.

🕧The key is timing. Arrange it before your development facility expires and you negotiate from strength, not under pressure with a lender’s default clock ticking.

✅We arrange bridging to repay development finance across the UK, often before the original term even ends. Scheme finishing soon? Talk to us before the deadline, not after.

👀The deal looks great. 20% margin. Solid GDV. So why do so many developers end up with 5%?

🫣Hidden costs.

❗The ones that don't make it into the rough appraisal but absolutely make it into the final accounts:

🔵Arrangement fees (often 2% of the loan)
🔵Exit fees
🔵Rolled-up interest on a build that runs long
🔵Valuation, monitoring surveyor, legals (both sides)
🔵Stamp Duty surcharge
🔵CIL, Building Safety Levy, warranties
🔵Sales agent fees and CGT on the back end

❗Miss a few of these and you can wave goodbye to 5–8% of your margin. On a £1m scheme, that's up to £80k of profit disappearing into costs you should have modelled from day one.

✅We sense check every deal before placing it. Real cost of finance. Real margin at the end.

🧮Got a scheme on the table? Let us run the numbers before you commit.

🏚️First development deal? Exciting. Daunting. And expensive if you approach finance the wrong way!

👀Lenders aren't just looking at the bricks and mortar. They're looking at your numbers (land, build, GDV, contingency, exit), your team (contractor, PM, QS, track record), your equity ( usually 25–30% on a first deal).

⚖️Every lender considers these differently. The one that says no might be totally wrong for your deal. The right specialist lender, packaged the right way, can be a yes.

🚪We've placed dozens of first-time developer deals across the UK. We know which doors to knock on and which to skip entirely.

➡️ First scheme on the horizon? Get in touch before you commit to a lender.

🤔Why do good deals get rejected? Usually, they're not actually rejected, they're just not presented in a way that gets attention.

👀Lenders see hundreds of applications a month. To get taken seriously, your deal needs:

☑️A proper appraisal, not a rough spreadsheet
☑️Clarity on planning, title, and conditions
☑️A credible, evidenced exit strategy → A professional team backing the numbers

❗The ones that get red-flagged? Vague figures. Missing contingencies. "We'll just sell them" as an exit. Even strong deals fall over when they're packaged badly.

💪🏼We know exactly what each lender wants to see and how to present your deal so it lands at the top of the pile, not the bottom.
