Development projects are rarely straightforward. Tight deadlines, rising costs and unexpected roadblocks are par for the course. In moments of pressure, having a funding partner who understands the pace and complexity of the industry can be the difference between momentum and gridlock. For these developers, the Lambert Capital Property Credit Fund has been that partner, offering speed, certainty and a level of understanding that’s hard to find elsewhere.

Choosing the right lender can make or break a development project. A lender might offer what appear to be attractive terms, but if they can’t move fast enough or adapt to challenges - especially during construction - they can cost you more in the long run. Whether you’re looking for land acquisition finance, a construction loan or residual stock funding, asking the right questions before signing on the dotted line is crucial, according to Lambert Capital Founder and Director Mark Greenberg . Beyond interest rates, developers need to scrutinise a lender’s operational speed, funding flexibility, and decision-making processes – both in the approval stage and during the construction phase. “Developers operate in a pressure cooker,” Mr Greenberg said. “One missed deadline or funding bottleneck, and an entire project can be at risk.” These are the key questions you should ask to secure a lending partner who delivers, not delays.
