Edinburgh Residential New Build

Client type: Existing Goldentree Client, Property Developer

Loan type: Ground up new build development loan

Location: South Edinburgh, Scotland

Funding: More than £3 million

Units Built: 4 residential units  

The challenge: 

The client needed a facility of more than £3m to fund the build costs for four, large detached houses just south of Edinburgh. They already owned the site and had planning in place for development. 

What they needed: 

  • Quick release of funds for the new build development
  • Expertise on cost-effective planning and cashflow management 
  • A finance partner able to respond fast to evolving project needs 

Our approach: 

We structured a new build development facility to provide phased funding aligned with renovation milestones. 

Our experienced team: 

  • Coordinated drawdowns with contractor timelines 
  • Provided ongoing advice to optimise project cashflow 
  • Ensured clear, consistent communication throughout
  • 18 -month rolled facility completed four weeks after initial site visit
  • LTV at the end of the term was 64.95%

Funding solution: 

More than £3 million loan facility released in stages according to renovation progress. 

The result: 

  • 4 residential units successfully new build development
  • Smooth funding and cashflow management 
  • Client achieved maximum return on property sale
