Commercial Development Finance

VAST Commercial Finance helps developers, investors and property businesses secure commercial development finance for projects including offices, industrial schemes, mixed-use developments, retail, leisure and specialist commercial property.

We work with a wide range of lenders to structure funding around the specific requirements of each scheme, helping clients access the capital they need to acquire sites, fund construction and manage cash flow throughout the development process.

  • Acquire commercial development sites
  • Fund new-build commercial schemes
  • Finance refurbishment and conversion projects
  • Support phased construction programmes
  • Manage cash flow throughout delivery
  • Secure funding for larger or more complex schemes

Why Choose VAST for commercial development finance?

Commercial development finance often requires more than a standard lending approach. Lenders want to understand the strength of the scheme, the borrower’s experience, the exit strategy and the wider market demand.

VAST helps present projects clearly and professionally, coordinating with lenders, surveyors and professional teams to improve funding certainty and support successful project delivery.

By managing lender engagement from start to finish, we help clients secure competitive terms and keep commercial development projects moving.

 

Purchase Bridging

Property opportunities rarely wait for traditional lending processes.

We arrange bridging facilities that enable clients to move quickly on acquisitions, secure off-market opportunities and complete transactions within demanding timescales.

Refinance Bridging

Where existing borrowing arrangements need replacing or restructuring, bridging finance can provide a practical interim solution.

We work with clients to create breathing space while longer-term financing is arranged.

Development Exit

For developers approaching practical completion, development exit facilities can improve cashflow, reduce funding costs and provide additional time for asset sales or refinancing.

We structure solutions that support projects through the final stages of the development cycle.

Auction Finance

Auction purchases require certainty and speed.

We help investors and developers secure funding capable of meeting strict completion deadlines while ensuring the chosen finance solution remains commercially viable beyond acquisition.
