Overview

End-to-end project funding.

Development finance covers the full lifecycle of a property development — from acquiring the land, through DA approval and construction, to sell-down of the completed product. We structure facilities that align with your project timeline and cash flow requirements.

Unlike bank development finance, we do not require extensive pre-sale commitments before funding. We assess the project on its merits — location, planning, build quality, and developer track record — and fund accordingly.

Our development finance is designed for experienced developers undertaking residential, mixed-use, townhouse, and apartment projects. We work with your team to structure a facility that gives you certainty of funding through to completion.

Who is this for?

01

Residential development

Townhouse, apartment, and house-and-land developments funded from site acquisition through to settlement of the final lot. We scale with your project.

02

Mixed-use projects

Projects combining residential, retail, and commercial components under a single development facility — structured around the unique cash flow profile of each use.

03

Townhouse and apartment projects

Multi-unit developments where the bank's pre-sale requirements or credit appetite do not match the opportunity. We fund based on project fundamentals.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions

LTC stands for loan-to-cost — the total facility amount as a percentage of the total project cost, including land, construction, professional fees, and interest. We typically fund up to 75% LTC.
Not always. Unlike most banks, we do not require a fixed percentage of pre-sales before funding. We assess each project on its merits, including location, product type, and developer experience. Some pre-sales may strengthen the application but are not always mandatory.
Yes. If you need to secure a site before DA approval, we can provide a standalone land acquisition facility. Once DA is granted, this can roll into a full development facility. For short-term site acquisition, see our bridging finance product.
Construction finance funds the physical build of a single property. Development finance covers the entire project lifecycle — land, approvals, construction, marketing, and sell-down — typically for multi-unit or larger-scale projects.
We prefer to work with developers who have completed at least one similar project. However, we also consider first-time developers with strong project teams, experienced builders, and solid feasibility studies.
Fees include an establishment fee (typically 1–2% of the facility), line fees, and legal costs. We provide a full fee schedule as part of our term sheet so there are no surprises.
