Cambridgeshire developer
The Challenge
A Cambridgeshire developer was building twelve townhouses in two phases of six on an infill brownfield site. Each phase had its own planning consent. Phase 1 was fully underway but funding ran short before Phase 2 could start, as a result of cost overruns on Phase 1.
Our Solution
Doulton assessed both phases together, refinanced the Phase 1 exposure, and structured a single facility of £2.75m to complete both phases. Phased drawdowns were tied to a revised build programme agreed with the QS.
The Outcome
Phase 1 completed and all six units sold. Phase 2 completed on the revised programme. All twelve units sold within four months of Phase 2 completion. Full facility redeemed ahead of term. Key highlights: Phase 1 cost overrun resolved within new facility; Single facility across both phases - simplified management; All 12 units sold, facility redeemed ahead of term.
