Funding and Investment Partners in Brecon

How do funding partners work with us in Brecon?

Land to Homes brings forward land and new homes in Brecon and across the UK, and some schemes need outside funding. That might be development debt from a lender, forward funding from an institutional partner, or a landowner keeping a stake through a joint venture. We discuss funding privately, and nothing here is an invitation to invest or regulated investment advice.

Rules that apply in Brecon

Social Housing Grant funds councils and registered social landlords to buy land, build new homes and convert existing buildings across Wales, including around Brecon. It can support social rent, intermediate rent and shared ownership. On private schemes, the council's Local Development Plan sets the affordable housing requirement, which is secured through a Section 106 agreement. Land to Homes can offer sites, design and construction to housing association partners.

In Wales, Land Transaction Tax replaces Stamp Duty Land Tax, and security is registered at HM Land Registry. Appraisals must allow for Section 106 obligations, the Community Infrastructure Levy where adopted and approval of sustainable drainage by the SuDS approving body. The Development Bank of Wales, owned by the Welsh Government, offers property development lending among its services.

Your questions answered for Brecon

What information do funding partners usually review?

Partners usually review the site title, the planning position, the scheme appraisal, the build programme, the construction approach, the plan for selling or letting the homes and the developer's background. Each carries out its own due diligence, often with valuers, monitoring surveyors and solicitors. We share site-specific information under confidentiality where appropriate.

What types of funding do residential developments use?

Typically a mix of senior development debt, sometimes mezzanine debt, and equity from the developer and its partners. Build to rent and affordable homes may use forward funding or forward purchase by an institution or registered provider. Landowners can also contribute land through a joint venture. The right structure depends on the scheme, and each party takes independent advice.

Can I invest in Land to Homes?

Nothing on this site is an offer or invitation to invest, and we do not take investment, loans or deposits from members of the public. We discuss funding privately with development lenders and institutional partners on specific schemes. If you are a professional party with an interest in residential development, you can contact us to start a conversation.

Do public bodies fund housing development?

Public bodies support housing delivery in each nation, for example Homes England, the government's housing and regeneration agency in England, and the Development Bank of Wales, which offers property development lending. Grant for affordable housing usually goes to councils and registered providers rather than developers. We describe these bodies for context; each has its own criteria.

Can we discuss a partnership in Brecon?

We are happy to talk about specific opportunities in Brecon and elsewhere in Powys, including Newtown, Llandrindod Wells and Welshpool. Conversations are private and every arrangement is documented by each party’s own advisers. Nothing here is an invitation to invest.
