    You should be able to borrow 80% of the value of the property as long as you can demonstrate ability to service this debt. You should also be able to borrow on the finished development product as well.

    Another way to look at it if getting finance is too big of a hurdle is to get your approvals in place and then sell the property to a developer, you can then take the funds and buy another place and end up with a net gain without having to rely on finance to develop.

    Hi Michael

    Depending on the level of bad credit you might find it almost impossible to get financing for such a project.

    There are so many variables and without knowing more it is too hard to provide you with an answer.

    In the current lending market established builders and developers with long histories of successful projects have enough trouble getting reasonable terms out of lenders..I think the comment about doing the DA / BA and onselling might be the only way you can do it.. you could work in keeping your PPOR as part of the contract..
    That said, keep asking the brokers/lenders….you never know…

    Hi Michael,

    One option could be to enter into a joint venture agreement with a builder, whereby you put up the land, and continue to keep paying the mortgage on the land,  the builder finances  and constructs  the homes, and he keeps one as payment. Sometimes a financial payment may be necessary to balance the deal, to ensure a win / win to both parties, with a legal agreement in place to protect each  party's interest.  I entered into one last year, for a development in Mckinnon, Victoria when finances were tight, and it worked out really well for myself and builder alike.

    Good luck
