Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between light and heavy refurb? +
Light refurb is cosmetic work (decorating, new kitchen/bathroom, landscaping). Heavy refurb involves structural changes, extensions, or change of use. Rates are typically higher for heavy refurb.
Can I get 100% of the works funded? +
Some lenders will fund 100% of works costs, released in stages. You'll typically need to fund initial stages yourself before drawdowns begin.
What's GDV lending? +
Gross Development Value lending means the lender considers the property's value after works are complete, not just current value. This can increase your borrowing capacity.
Do I need planning permission? +
For heavy refurb involving extensions or change of use, yes. Light refurb under permitted development typically doesn't need planning.
