As a country we need more homes to be built and finance can be a barrier – particularly for small builders and innovative schemes.
There are a number of organisations who specialise in funding construction work. The finance includes both private sector funding and government loans from the Home Building Fund. A range of finance is available for building development, including pre-construction, development, refurbishment ,bridging loans, and much more.
