Specialist mezzanine finance for Worcestershire's developers
Second-charge development funding that lifts combined leverage to 90 to 95 percent of cost, underwritten with live planning and sold-price data from 7 Worcestershire towns. We lend from our own book and arrange whole of market where that serves you better.
Development gap funding across the county of Worcestershire
Across the 7 Worcestershire towns we monitor, 7 residential units are moving through live planning applications, an estimated £1.2m of gross development value, with 75 percent of decided relevant applications approved over the last 12 months. Kidderminster recorded 1,171 sales in the last 12 months, while Bromsgrove carries the county's strongest pricing at a median of £335,000.
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 Worcestershire deal. The same numbers are published openly in our UK development pipeline tracker.
Worcester is the largest settlement and the county's main city. The Malvern Hills form a dramatic landscape feature, rising to the Worcestershire Beacon.
The product itself works the same in Worcestershire 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.

Mezzanine finance in Worcestershire, answered
Do you lend on developments in Worcestershire?
Yes. We provide second-charge mezzanine finance for residential and mixed-use schemes across the county of Worcestershire, typically taking combined leverage to 85 to 95 percent of cost alongside a senior facility. Where a case suits another funder's appetite better, we arrange it whole of market instead.
What does mezzanine finance cost in Worcestershire?
Pricing is set by the deal rather than the postcode: indicatively 12 to 18 percent a year with an arrangement fee of 1.5 to 2.5 percent. What moves it is leverage, track record, profit on cost and the strength of the exit, and Worcestershire schemes with sales evidence from markets like Kidderminster price at the stronger end.
Which Worcestershire towns do you cover?
All of them. The towns listed on this page are the ones our data monitors track, including Kidderminster, Bromsgrove, Droitwich, Evesham, but we lend and arrange across the whole county and the wider region.
How quickly can a Worcestershire scheme get a term sheet?
The same as anywhere we lend: a complete enquiry gets a considered credit view and term sheet inside 48 hours, and typical enquiry to drawdown is 4 to 6 weeks alongside your senior lender's process.
