Mezzanine finance for Fleet developers
Second-charge development funding to 90 to 95 percent of cost, priced against Fleet's own evidence: 1,102 recorded sales in the last 12 months and 165 units in live planning applications. We lend from our own book and arrange whole of market where that serves you better.
The Fleet market, in numbers we underwrite from
A mezzanine loan is a view on whether a scheme will sell at the price its appraisal claims, so every Fleet deal starts with the local evidence. Over the last 12 months the town recorded 1,102 sales at a median of £447,750, down 4.7 percent year on year. New build stock commands a premium of about 9 percent over existing homes on 15 new build completions, which matters directly to how we read a developer's sales assumptions.

Gap funding for Fleet schemes
The structure is the same one we write everywhere: your senior lender keeps first charge and funds the majority of cost, our mezzanine finance takes a second charge over the next slice, and your equity requirement falls, typically from around 35 percent of cost to 5 or 10. Terms run 6 to 36 months, pricing is indicatively from 12 percent a year, and a complete enquiry gets a term sheet inside 48 hours.
