Funding to Purchase & Convert an Old Abandoned Care Home Into Stunning New Homes

Our client, a highly skilled & experienced Scottish property developer, came to us requesting funds to purchase and convert an old derelict care home into 2 houses and 5 mews.
The client had initially obtained planning for a different type of conversion, however their planning application was amended post purchase in order to maximise the value of the site.
Their plan was to split the build into two separate phases, initially converting the main care home into 2 houses, selling these houses and repaying the loan and then drawing down further funds to finish the site and develop the 5 mews.
Lowry Capital provided £537,000 in funding for both the purchase and conversion of the property.
The developer is now finishing the first house and is looking to start phase 2 of their build schedule and by using Lowry Capital's multi tranche approach they will can access further funds quickly and simply.
Lowry Capital are happy to fund projects across multiple drawdowns, our development funding simple and flexible tailored to fit your schedule of works.
