Development Finance Day

The team at Bridging Finance Solutions are holding a FREE Development Finance Day in collaboration with the NACFB on the 29th January 2019 at Ashton-in-Makerfield Golf Club. It is an event that property professionals will not want to miss! This is a free event but you do need to reserve a ticket.

This event aims to give people an insight into managing their first bridging deal and improving their wider knowledge of the development finance process, whilst also giving the more experienced property developers access to specialist finance providers in the market. Presentations from underwriters, valuers, quantity surveyors (QS) and solicitors will provide added insight into the specialist requirements of the professional teams involved.

Attendees are eligible to earn CPD points as the event is classed as an educational experience.

A few words from Keith Litherland

At Bridging Finance Solutions, we are seeing an increase in demand for development finance and in particular those smaller developments with properties typically ranging in value from £100,000 to £750,000.

Many traditional development lenders have no appetite for these deals which they consider too small. In contrast, BFS view this customer group as a core target market and aim to help both new and experienced developers to look at a deal with fresh eyes considering how bridging can be incorporated to simplify and streamline the process.”

Working with the NACFB and their members creates an opportunity to earn CPD points as the event is classed as an educational experience. We want to encourage more brokers to increase their use of bridging, integrating this approach into their everyday lending solutions.
