    What is development finance?

    Development finance is short-to-medium term funding (6-24 months) for property projects such as subdivisions, townhouse builds, and knockdown rebuilds. In Melbourne, lenders typically advance up to 65% of the gross realisation value (GRV), with progress drawdowns aligned to construction milestones.
