What risks are involved in property development loan investments?
Investments in property development loans are considered to be a relatively high risk/reward investments and it's important to understand the risks before investing. Read about the key risks here.
How are the development loans secured?
Property development loans are secured with a legal charge against the development site and are often backed by a personal guarantee from the developer (borrower). The structure of a loan’s security is a key factor in assessing the risk profile of a loan. Common types of security include:
What happens when the developer repays the loan?
You will be notified by email that the loan has been repaid. Both the capital invested, plus interest accrued, will be paid into your Available Funds.
Can the term of the loan be extended?
The term of the loan can only be extended if agreed between the developer and and our lending partner. This could take place if the development is delayed due to slower than expected progression of sale, and it makes sense to extend the loan agreement rather than attempt to enforce security.
Can the loan be repaid early?
Yes, the developer is permitted to pay back the loan early. In this case you'll receive your capital and interest earlier. The interest will be calculated on a pro-rated basis, subject to a minimum of six month's interest.
Can I get my investment back early?
No, it’s not possible to sell or transfer your bonds. Investors will receive their capital and interest when the loan is repaid by the developer.
Will I be able to sell my holding in the loan on the Resale Market?
No. We are, however, planning to develop this option in the future.
Will I be kept up to date on the progress of the development and subsequent payback of interest and investment?
Yes, our lending partners take a regular hands-on approach to monitoring progress and reporting this back to investors.
What happens if the developer defaults on the loan?
Provision is made to cater for the scenario when a developer defaults on their loan. In the event of late repayment, the developer may be subject to penalty interest over and above the standard rate and ultimately our lending partner can enforce the security to recover funds if required.
How our Property Partner development loans structured?
