We assist with funding for a range of property development projects, including residential, commercial, industrial, mixed-use and specialised property developments.

We can arrange senior debt, stretched senior debt and mezzanine finance, and source preferred equity where appropriate. Funding is sourced through banks, non-bank lenders and private capital providers, with the structure tailored to the project's costs, available equity, presales position and exit strategy.

Yes. Where traditional senior debt does not provide sufficient leverage, we can assess alternative structures to help bridge the funding gap. This may include stretched senior debt, mezzanine finance, preferred equity or a combination of funding sources. The appropriate structure will depend on the project, available equity, risk profile and proposed exit strategy.

Pre-sale requirements vary depending on the lender’s credit appetite and the specifics of your project. We can guide you through lender expectations and explore funding options that align with your sales position and construction timeline, helping you get your project underway sooner.

Timing depends on the complexity of the transaction, the readiness of the information and the selected capital provider. We guide clients through lender assessment, approval, documentation and settlement while helping to keep the process moving efficiently.

Ideally, construction funding should be considered well before construction is due to commence. Early engagement provides time to assess the project, determine an appropriate capital structure, approach suitable funding providers and work through valuation, quantity surveying, documentation and other conditions required before drawdown.

We can also assist where funding is required within a shorter timeframe or where circumstances change during a project.

The information required will depend on the project and its stage, but an initial assessment will generally consider the site, development approvals, project feasibility, construction costs, proposed builder and contract structure, development program, sales or leasing strategy, borrower equity and proposed exit strategy.

You do not need to have every item finalised before speaking with us. We can review the information available, identify any gaps and discuss what will be required to progress the funding request.

Yes. We can assess funding options for projects with non-standard construction arrangements, including owner-builder projects, construction management agreements and cost-plus contracts. We consider the proposed arrangements, builder experience and cost controls to identify suitable funding providers.

Yes. We can source mezzanine finance and preferred equity as part of a project's funding structure. Suitability depends on the senior lender's requirements, available borrower equity, project feasibility and exit strategy. We assess the costs, terms and repayment priorities of these options within the overall capital structure.

Yes. We can assess funding requirements for projects already under construction, including where additional capital is required, costs have changed, the existing facility needs to be refinanced or the current funding structure no longer meets the project's requirements.

We will consider the project's progress, remaining costs to complete, existing funding, available equity and the proposed exit strategy to determine suitable funding options.

Yes. We can help structure construction funding around a hold strategy, taking into account the property’s expected rental income, leasing arrangements and longer-term borrowing capacity. Planning the transition to an investment facility early helps ensure the proposed refinance can support repayment of the construction debt.
