What is Development Finance?

Development finance is specialised funding designed to support both small and large-scale construction projects. Tailored for property developers, this type of financing helps manage costs associated with land acquisition and construction. It is crucial for projects that require substantial capital, offering flexible drawdown options that align with project milestones.

At LivFinance, we simplify securing development finance — guiding you every step of the way with expertise, speed, and tailored solutions.

Step 1: Initial Enquiry and Information Gathering:

Your journey begins with a conversation. Whether you're a developer or introducer, we collect key details about your project, your requirements, and your timelines to fully understand your needs.

Step 2: Lender Matching, Proposal Submission — or Direct Lending:

We carefully identify the most suitable lender from our extensive network of market-leading finance partners. Where appropriate, LivFinance may also provide direct funding solutions, ensuring maximum flexibility for your project. We then prepare and submit a detailed proposal to the lender on your behalf.

Step 3: Agreement of Terms

If the lender (or LivFinance) is happy with the proposal, they will issue an Agreement in Principle (AIP) outlining the indicative terms. We review these terms with you to ensure clarity and alignment before moving forward.

Step 4: Application and Valuation

Once terms are agreed, we complete all required lender application documents with you. The lender will then instruct a formal valuation of the property, land, or development site to confirm security and project value.

Step 5: Legal Process

Both you and the lender will instruct solicitors. Legal due diligence is undertaken to ensure the security is correctly structured, and we work closely with all parties to maintain momentum and resolve any legal queries quickly.

Step 6: Completion and Funding

Upon satisfactory legal completion, funds are released, and your development finance facility becomes live — ready to power your project forward with confidence.
