Do property developers get mortgages?
Short answer: Yes, property developers can get mortgages.
A mortgage in real estate is simply a type of loan that property developers use to finance the development and purchase of an investment property. This loan is secured against the price of the development property.
Property developers can get a mortgage from different sources, such as banks, lending institutions, and building societies. Real estate developers must provide proof of their financial stability to secure a mortgage from any source.

What lenders may ask?
It may include information about their income and savings or, in some cases, a deposit (equivalent to a certain percentage of the property value or purchase price). The lenders may also ask to demonstrate the creditworthiness or viability of the proposed development project.
How much to deposit, the interest rate and the amount the developer receives depends on the lender’s criteria and the developer’s creditworthiness.
It’s important to note that property development is a capital-intensive endeavour, and developers will need access to significant funds to cover the project’s costs, including the deposit and the mortgage.
Developers may also be required to provide additional collateral or guarantees such as personal guarantees, mortgage or charge over assets.
