Securities For Lenders

You may ask, what is it for development finance UK companies when they provide bespoke services and lend money? Surely, in the world where there is nothing free, lenders must get something from lending money.

Typically, lenders earn from the interest payment of the principal amount they lent. On top of the interests, lenders need to have security from the borrower. The security is plainly what it means – in times that the borrower cannot pay the full amount (principal and interest roll up), the lender will have the right to the agreed security. The lender’s security includes:
• 1st legal charge on land for senior debt
• 2nd legal charge on land for all mezzanine funds, equity funds
• Debenture on the company’s assets
• Other lenders would require the development to be carried out under a separate Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), particularly where the developer has a multi-banking arrangement
• For Joint Venture structures, lenders can choose shareholding in SPV or Profit Share agreement
• Personal Guarantees may be required by lenders. PG’s usually depend on number of factors such as experience, balance sheet value, trading history, profitability of the development and bank policy. A PG may be for cost overruns, interest overruns or principal sum.


The security for residential or commercial development finance for site and property acquisition or build depend on the type of funding schemes that are provided by development finance UK. The providers have specialist on each type of funding and they are able to arrange the security that is required by the lenders on the specific scheme.
