No, you generally cannot secure a standard large mortgage for a property development project.
Property development typically requires specialised financing known as property development finance, which is different from standard residential mortgages.
This type of finance is specifically designed to fund large-scale construction or renovation projects and has different criteria, terms, and conditions than a typical mortgage.
For property development, lenders focus more on the project’s potential value and feasibility rather than the traditional factors considered in standard mortgage applications.
