Frequently Asked Questions
Can I really get development finance with no experience?
Yes. Some lenders specialise in supporting first-time developers. They'll look at the project, your build team and your exit strategy rather than just your track record. Terms may be more conservative, but it's absolutely achievable.
Should I start with a refurbishment or ground up?
Most advisers recommend starting with a refurbishment project. It's lower risk, requires less capital and gives you a track record for future projects.
