Since 1987, Hodge has specialised in providing development finance loans. As well as learning a lot about development and the obstacles and challenges developers often face, we’ve also fine-tuned our offering, listening to what you’ve told us you want and need from us.

When you choose Hodge, you can expect:

  • Expert support
    Our experienced relationship managers will help structure the loan and support you throughout your project.
  • Project variety
    We can lend on land and property refurbishments, conversions and new build developments.
  • Efficient service
    Our business structure allows us to make decisions quickly

    If you’re planning on keeping your properties once the development is complete, our residential investment and portfolio buy-to-let teams could support you to do so. By refinancing onto a longer term finance option with Hodge, you could save diligence and finance costs, as well as benefit from the security already being in place.
