Tailored funding solutions to support your property development from start to finish.

Development Finance

Development finance is a short-term funding solution designed for property developers who require capital to complete residential, commercial, or mixed-use projects. Whether you’re a seasoned developer or taking on your first build, Lionsgate works with you to structure finance that fits your construction schedule, cash flow, and exit strategy.

What we offer:

  • Flexible funding for a variety of developments including new builds, property conversions, and large-scale refurbishments
  • Up to 70% of land value and up to 100% of build costs, depending on experience, project viability, and Gross Development Value (GDV)
  • Staged drawdowns released in phases aligned with your build progress to keep cash flowing smoothly
  • Competitive interest rates with the choice of rolled-up or serviced interest during the loan term
  • Planning gain finance support, available both pre-planning and post-planning approval to help unlock project potential early

We work with a panel of specialist lenders who understand the speed, risk, and complexity of development projects. Our expert advisors ensure you are connected with the right lender who supports your goals — from land acquisition through to project completion.

Flexible short-term funding to refinance completed developments and unlock new opportunities.

Exit Finance

Exit finance — also known as development exit loans — is ideal for developers nearing the end of a project who need more time to sell or refinance completed units. It offers breathing space and a lower-cost alternative to extending high-interest development finance.

Why use exit finance?

  • Reduce borrowing costs while you market completed properties
  • Raise additional capital against finished developments for reinvestment or cash flow needs
  • Avoid penalty fees on existing development finance due to project overruns
  • Improve cash flow to take advantage of new development or investment opportunities
  • Bridge the gap between project completion and long-term mortgage or Buy-to-Let refinancing

We help you secure fast and flexible exit finance that puts you back in control — whether your goal is to release equity, refinance onto more favourable terms, or prepare for long-term income through a Buy-to-Let structure.

Think carefully before securing other debts against your home. Your home or property may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

Representative example A mortgage of £237,767 payable over 24 years, initially on a fixed rate until 30/09/27 at 5.19% and then on a variable rate of 6.24% for the remaining 22 years would require 26 payments of £1,445.40 followed by 262 payments of £1,583.81. The total amount payable would be £453,653 made up of the loan amount plus interest (£214,772) and fees (£1,114). The overall cost for comparison is 6.1% APRC representative.
