“I have used Hunter Finance for 2 developments in the past 18 months and on both occasions have been very pleased with the service they provide. The whole process of arranging the funding, dealing with the legal process, and drawing funds is dealt with quickly and professionally. The whole team is a pleasure to deal with and I would not hesitate to recommend them.” M. Salmon, May 2018

Loan structure basics

The loan application is complete when the finance had been fully arranged and agreed by both parties.
Funding is released as per the contract subject to signing off by a quantity surveyor or architect.
With most of our loan facilities, interest is only payable on the money drawn down, potentially saving you thousands of pounds in fees.
When the development is finished, any exit fees need to be paid by the agreed date.

At Hunter Finance we are happy to discuss your specific situation and loan needs.
