Regional housebuilder
The Challenge
A regional housebuilder identified a greenfield site in Hampshire with outline planning for 22 homes. The vendor required an unconditional purchase - a detailed planning application was still to be submitted. Mainstream lenders would not advance without detailed consent.
Our Solution
Doulton provided a £1.1m land loan against the outline consented site, recognising the site's planning trajectory and the borrower's track record. The borrower submitted a detailed application within six weeks of purchase.
The Outcome
Site purchased. Detailed planning consent obtained at month nine. Development facility arranged from a mainstream lender and the land loan redeemed at month eleven. Key highlights: Outline planning consent accepted; Detailed application submitted within 6 weeks; Development facility arranged - clean exit.
