The Kings Lynn 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 Kings Lynn deal starts with the local evidence. Over the last 12 months the town recorded 1,804 sales at a median of £265,000, flat 0 percent year on year. New build stock commands a premium of about 10 percent over existing homes on 11 new build completions, which matters directly to how we read a developer's sales assumptions.
