Specialist mezzanine finance for Nottinghamshire's developers

Development gap funding across the county of Nottinghamshire

Across the 7 Nottinghamshire towns we monitor, 1,123 residential units are moving through live planning applications, an estimated £264m of gross development value. Nottingham recorded 2,728 sales in the last 12 months, while West Bridgford carries the county's strongest pricing at a median of £325,000.

That data is not decoration: it is how we underwrite. A mezzanine loan is a view on whether a scheme will sell at the price its appraisal claims, so we track every live application and recorded sale in the towns above before we price a Nottinghamshire deal. The same numbers are published openly in our UK development pipeline tracker.

Nottingham is the largest settlement and the county's most densely populated area. Sherwood Forest, famed for its links to the Robin Hood legend, lies in the centre-north.

The product itself works the same in Nottinghamshire as everywhere we lend: 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 35 percent of cost to 5 or 10. Terms run 6 to 36 months with pricing indicatively from 12 percent a year, and a complete enquiry gets a term sheet inside 48 hours. Model your own scheme with the leverage calculator.
