What types of renovation proejcts can I finance?

Renovation finance can cover a wide range of projects, typically classified into structural and non-structural renovations.

- Structural renovations: Involve significant changes to the core framework of your property. These include adding or removing walls, modifying the building’s layout, reinforcing foundations, or expanding the structure.

- Non-structural renovations: Focus on cosmetic and functional upgrades that don't alter the building’s framework. This category includes updating kitchens and bathrooms, installing new flooring, painting, and upgrading fixtures. Landscaping also falls under non-structural renovations, encompassing improvements such as garden redesigns, patios, and outdoor features that enhance the property’s exterior without affecting its structural integrity.

How is the renovation finance amount determined?

The amount of renovation finance you can receive is primarily based on your borrowing capacity and the current value of your property. Generally, banks will lend up to 80% of the property's value.

For an equity release, the bank considers the property's current value rather than the potential end value of the renovation. This is because there is no guarantee that the funds will be used exclusively for the renovation.

If your renovation is under a build contract, valuers assess the property's value at the end of the renovation. They start with the current land value and add the anticipated value of the completed project to determine the total value. This helps ensure that the loan amount reflects the improved value of the property post-renovation.

Will the bank consider potential new rental income for investment property renovations?

If your renovation is under a build contract, the bank may consider the potential new rental income when assessing the loan amount. However, if you are using equity release, the bank will not factor in the potential new rental income and will base the finance amount on the current property value instead.
