Gosport Retail Park Commercial Development Loan
In a notable commercial retail development project in Gosport, Hampshire, an experienced retail developer faced the challenge of securing full financing through the planning process. With ambitious plans for five retail units and two drive-thru restaurants. The need for financial support until the project achieved sufficient pre-letting posed a significant hurdle.
Alternative stepped in to provide a £15,000,000 commercial development loan with a 65% Loan-to-Value (LTV). This financing played a crucial role in navigating the planning process and continued to support the project through a new facility for construction, related fees, and accrued interest. This bespoke financial solution showcased Alternative’s commitment to full project support and their confidence in the development’s viability.
Construction is now being progressed under the oversight of a regional, mid-size contractor and a dedicated professional team. Alternative’s commitment extends beyond the construction phase. Alternative’s plan to continue financing the project until the income from the completed project stabilises, highlights their long-term perspective and dedication to ensuring the success of the development.
This case study exemplifies Alternative Bridging’s tailored financial solutions, proving how their flexible and supportive approach ensures the success of complex commercial retail developments. The 65% Loan-to-Value ratio and £15,000,000 loan amount underscore ABC’s confidence in the project’s potential, setting a precedent for future collaborations in the dynamic real estate landscape.
