Bridging & Development Finance — 20 Years Experience. Smarter Tools. Better Outcomes.

I'm Tim. I've been arranging bridging loans and development finance for over 20 years — including time as a first-line underwriter. That means I know what lenders need to see before they'll say yes, and I don't waste your time on applications that won't work.

Based in North Wales, covering the whole of England and Wales. Over 100 lenders on my panel. One direct phone number. No call centre.

How Do You Want to Work?

Let Me Handle It

Tell me about your deal. I'll search across 100+ lenders, find you the best options, and push the application through to completion. You get my 20 years of underwriting and broking experience working for you.

I handle everything — from lender selection and DIP through to valuation, legal, and drawdowns. One point of contact throughout.

What I Arrange

Bridging Loans

Short-term property finance for purchases, auction completions, chain breaks, capital raising, and refurbishment. Funds typically available within 2–4 weeks.

Bridging finance →

Development Finance

Staged funding for ground-up builds, conversions, and heavy refurbishments. From £25k single-unit projects to multi-million pound schemes. JV funding up to £10m.

Development finance →

Development Exit

Replace your development loan with lower-rate bridging once the project is wind and watertight. Buys you time to sell at the right price or refinance without pressure.

Development exit →

Refurbishment Finance

Light refurb (cosmetic) or heavy refurb (structural) with staged drawdowns. The right product depends on the scope of work — I'll match you to the correct one.

Compare refurb lenders →

Auction Finance

Complete within the 28-day auction deadline. Get a Decision in Principle before auction day so you can bid with confidence.

Auction finance →

Rebridging

Existing bridging loan approaching its term end? Act early. A rebridge avoids default interest and gives you more time to complete your exit.

Why Build Capital?

UW

Underwriter Turned Broker

I spent years on the other side of the desk deciding whether to approve deals. That means I know exactly what lenders need — and I submit complete applications from day one. Faster decisions, fewer surprises.

100+

Lenders on My Panel

I search the whole market through a sourcing platform I built myself — not just a handful of preferred lenders. You get options matched to your deal, not to my commission.

20yr

Experience in the Industry

Two decades of bridging and development finance, across every deal type and market condition. I've seen what works, what doesn't, and which lenders actually do what they say they will.

NW

Based in North Wales

Local knowledge of the property market, planning authorities, Welsh property law, and the specific challenges of financing property in this region. Not a London broker guessing at rural valuations.
