Joint Venture Property Development Finance In North England
The Scenario
A regional house builder, who had a successful 15-year history of property building in the northwest of England, required a substantial amount of finance to fund their next development project.
The developer purchased a piece of land in Cheshire, where they intended to build a 13-house site, by securing a long-term revolving credit facility with a high street bank.
As a result of an unforeseeable policy change with the bank, the developer was denied a further extension of the facility to cover the cost of construction.
The Solution
In order to start construction and avoid any costly delays, a joint venture package was arranged for the developer.
The joint venture package was agreed on the following:
-
The developer had to provide 5% of the total cost of the project - £169K
-
The joint venture partner agreed to contribute the remaining 95% - £1.76M
-
The joint venture partner would take the first charge over the site until repayment
-
Total facility - £1.94M
-
Term of finance – 15 months
This joint venture facility was calculated on a peak cash flow basis for the acquisition and construction of Phase 1 of the site in Cheshire.
The development finance provided allowed the developer to repay the facility from their existing bank and realise a land profit on day 1.
