    Does anyone know any concrete information on the line of loan called a devlopment loan where the bank lends 70% of the finished value of an intended development? If so how can i get more information on these loans?

    GR lending is standard practise in the development market.

    Those lenders that offer this will base the lending on a variety of factors including Directors Assets & Liabilities, income both from within and outside of the project, pre-sales dependant on the number of units in the development and total viability of the project.

    70% GR should be readily available.

    Ok thanks. I assume GR is gearing ratios?

    hi barney
    If its any help.
    For all my developments (through my Trust) I have been using EVL (End Value Loans) at 80% with nab, which is readily available if you (and the development) qualify.

    There are such options where you can get a secured loan over  a ongoing construction. Just find out with your local agent. He may tell you more in detail. Property Investment has lot of complication and its better to be safe

    Yes I pay GST during the development (builders etc..) and collect GST on the sales at the other end (through the trust).

    cheers
