The Challenge
A self-builder had identified a single plot in a Devon village with planning consent for a bespoke family home. The plot vendor required a quick unconditional purchase. Self-build mortgage providers required planning consent to be in place before advancing on the land - which it was - but needed time to process the application.
Our Solution

The Outcome
Plot purchased. Self-build mortgage provider completed their assessment during the bridge term and advanced funds at month nine, enabling groundworks to commence. Key highlights: Self-build plot accepted with planning in place; 16-day completion; Self-build mortgage provider bridge confirmed at month 9.
