Developer seeks maximum returns utilising £2.1m Aspen Finish & Exit facility

13 August 2026

Aspen has provided a £2,120,000 Finish & Exit bridge, simultaneously using their No Valuation product, to allow refinance, completion and additional time to maximise sales values on a high-value residential development in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire.

The experienced developer required an initial £2,065,000 to repay their existing facility, whilst a further £55,000 has been made available in arrears to finalise outstanding works.

The site comprises three new-build four-bedroom houses, and with one of the units already sold STC the lender has taken security over the two remaining units which are already listed with a local agent.

With a combined market value of circa £3.125m and a square footage of 4,630 and 2,570 respectively, both luxury properties feature multiple reception rooms, games rooms and large gardens.

As part of the 80% LTV deal structure, Aspen took an equitable charge over an additional property owned by the borrower which enabled the lender to offer improved terms.

The No Valuation bridge was finalised at 0.85% per month over 10 months. Exit will be realised through sale of the properties.

In line with the lender’s one-person per-case Customer Service Commitment the application was taken from start-to-finish by Senior Underwriter, Laura Randall.

Laura said: “In a subdued market it can pay for developers to take the time to complete works on site and hold out for higher sales values later, and a well-constructed bridge can provide exactly that kind of breathing space.

“Our award-winning No Valuation product is perfect for developers who find themselves in such a position, providing the flexibility to allow any project to realise the best possible return on investment.”

Aspen’s product range includes Bridging, Ground Up Development and its award-winning Bridge-to-Let and No Valuation offerings.

Flat Rates start from 0.74% per month up to 80% LTV with Stepped Rates starting at 0.35% per month.

With maximum loan sizes up to £15m, the lender has positioned itself as a leading provider of refurbishment finance for UK and overseas developers and property professionals.
