🏆 Exciting news! Stamford Capital has been named Development Finance Brokerage of the Year at The Adviser’s inaugural Commercial Finance Awards. While Stamford Capital also supports clients with financing for their commercial real estate investments, we've seen development finance needs escalate over the last few years. Development projects have faced a number of challenges in recent times: escalating construction costs, labour shortages, numerous builder and contractor insolvencies, leading to blown out project timeframes, increased lender due diligence and sector-wide scrutiny. At Stamford Capital, we've seen construction deals take 50% more time from inception to settlement from two years ago. This has meant more time, energy and problem solving from our team to achieve the same outstanding outcomes for our clients that we've always delivered. We couldn't be more proud. A big thank you to our clients, partners, and lenders for making this achievement possible! And thank you to The Adviser for supporting our industry!
