REFURBISHMENT FINANCE PURPOSES
Refurbishment finance can be used for many purposes, including:
- Converting commercial property to residential – you will normally require either a ‘change of use’ granted via the local authority in order to convert a commercial property into a residential one, or full planning permission. This will depend on how much you are reconfiguring the internal layout of the property.
- Converting a property from a house to flats or converting a property from flats to a house – it’s important to consider planning consent and building regulation approvals when undertaking projects such as these. Typically, this may take up to six months to complete.
- Funding a rear or side extension, or loft conversion – through the addition of a rear or side extension, roof extension or loft conversion, the property value can increase significantly. These types of projects can usually be completed under permitted development rights, although it is sensible to obtain a certificate of lawful use.
- Converting a property to an House of Multiple Occupation (HMO) – improvement or conversion work requiring planning consent and/or building regulations approval and where a change of use may be required.
- Barn or farm building conversions – we have lenders who will fund the cost of converting these buildings into a residential property which will normally require planning permission. The amount you borrow will be based on how much the property is likely to be worth once completed.
