One
of the most important factors in property development
loan is that few lenders ask the borrower to invest
his portion of money in project development before they
disburse the first installment of loan. Subsequently,
lenders pay in the ratio of project completed.
Property development loans
In case of property development loans, loan amount depends
upon the profitability, viability and risks associated
with the property development project. Similarly, rate
of interest charged by lenders depend upon the profitability
and risks associated with the project. If the project
seems risky or viability is not guaranteed, lenders
charge higher interest than a project which is sure
to be profitable. This higher interest rate is charged
by lenders to compensate against the increased risk
associated with the property project. Some of the key
features of property development loans are:
Loan amount (criteria varies from
lender to lender; some of the common are give below)
- Loan amount depends upon project profile
- However, usually it is up to 100% of the cost of
the project
- amount varies between £30,000 and £30
million
- Up to 70% of the land cost and 70% of the building
costs
Repayment period: Up to 12 months
Interest Rates: Variable rates, generally
between 2% and 3% above the Bank of England's base rate.
Repayments: On project completion
Therefore, if you want to develop a property, you can
borrow loan from lenders who offer property development
loans. Money in case of property development loan is
disbursed in the ratio of actual construction done and
loan is repaid at the end of the project by selling
the property or by refinancing the property.
