Construction Finance Education

Essential knowledge for successful construction finance applications and project management

Understanding TDC

Total Development Cost (TDC) includes all costs associated with your development project:

  • • Land acquisition costs
  • • Construction and building costs
  • • Professional fees (architect, engineer, etc.)
  • • Council fees and charges
  • • Marketing and sales costs
  • • Finance costs and contingencies

Tip: Accurate TDC calculation is crucial for determining your maximum facility size and ensuring adequate funding.

Progress Payments

Construction finance is typically drawn down in stages based on construction progress:

  • • Site preparation and foundations
  • • Frame and roof completion
  • • Lock-up stage
  • • Fixing and fitting out
  • • Practical completion

Benefit: Progress payments help manage cash flow and ensure funds are only released as work is completed.

Risk Mitigation

Key strategies to minimize risks in construction finance:

  • • Comprehensive insurance coverage
  • • Fixed price construction contracts
  • • Regular quantity surveyor inspections
  • • Adequate contingency allowances
  • • Experienced project management
  • • Clear exit strategy planning

Important: Proper risk management protects both borrower and lender interests throughout the project.
