On this episode of Expat Property Story, we dive into the world of specialist finance in development projects.
Our guest, Steve Hand, shares his valuable insights as a seasoned mortgage industry expert with 23 years of experience.
We discuss various topics such as commercial valuations, investment diversity, and finding the right lender for your project.
We also look at the pros and cons of investing in serviced accommodation and why it's essential to calculate the true cost of loans and mortgages.
Join us as we share real-life examples of clients and projects, such as the case of two ex-guest houses in Morecambe that were reconfigured into an Aparthotel with the help of a commercial-type lender.
