Octane and Hirschle Hughes deliver £1.8m development exit loan in Hertfordshire




Octane Capital has completed a £1.76m development exit facility to support two newly completed residential properties in Hertfordshire, in partnership with Hirschle Hughes.

The scheme comprises two homes with a combined market value of approximately £2.5m.

The 12-month facility refinanced the borrower’s existing development debt and associated exit fees, while also providing additional funds to settle final contractor and supplier invoices following completion.


Mark Stephenson, senior BDM at Octane Capital, said it was immediately clear this was a good opportunity for the firm:

“There were a few hurdles around biodiversity net gain and planning, but Dan [Smith, senior mortgage and protection advisor at Hirschle Hughes] did a great job keeping everyone aligned and the process moving.

“When brokers stay close to a deal and keep communication flowing between all parties, it makes a real difference to getting transactions completed smoothly.”

Dan added: “It was a pleasure working with Octane Capital on this transaction — their decisive, solution-led approach gave the client real confidence and ensured a smooth and timely exit from development finance.”
