Credit Chamber is committed to helping clients build their future wealth through developmental projects. These developmental projects can range from single-deducted houses to multi-dwelling apartments, skyscrapers, warehouses, boarding houses or hotels.
Quantity Surveyor Cost Estimate Report Credit Chamber works with licensed Quantity Surveyors who can help you to determine whether the estimated property development costs exceed the council's limit. A cost report verifies the construction costs of a development project which allows the council to accurately calculate fees that the developer must pay. Note: ●This report is not only used for tax claim purposes but is a requirement for lenders and developers. | Feasibility and Cost Accounting Services Our strategic co-operator at Credit Chamber provides cost accounting services. We offer: 1.SPV loan and suggestion 2.Feasibility study 3.Cost for each development stage calculation and development loan claim 4.Funds budgeting 5.Contingency funds and calculation |
At Credit Chamber, we coordinate the development team's CV, legal review of the pre-sale contract, review of feasibility to meet profit margin requirements of lenders. We also specialise in direct lending solutions for those borrowers who have special backgrounds and strong demand for funds. We also provide First mortgage direct lending services and second-mortgage opportunities at negotiable rates and loan terms.
There are two main funding parameters to consider before applying for a loan:
●Loan to Cost (LTC) ratio: that is the loan amount as a percentage of total cost of the project including land value, building costs and establishment costs like architecture and engineering. We can achieve 70% LTC for developers through major big four banks.
●Loan to Value Ratio (LVR): this is the loan amount as a percentage of the value of the completed project. It is possible for our professional team to reach 70% of GRV through a non-bank lender for those developers and their team who lack Australian local development experience.
