SUCCESS STORIES
Avondale Build-to-Rent | 19 Unit Development
Cressida recently provided a development facility to support the construction of 19 terrace houses in Avondale, Auckland.
The developer required a funding partner who could provide certainty from start to finish, with a structure tailored to the realities of construction cash flow.
Highlights:
- GST inclusive funding
- Full construction cycle funding
- Adopted the developer’s project cost budget rather than a standardised market template
- Bespoke cost to complete drawdown model rather than milestone based drawdowns
Rather than relying on a standard milestone based drawdown structure, Cressida implemented a cost to complete funding model tailored to the developer’s requirements and the project’s staging. This approach provided greater flexibility, with funds released in line with actual progress and contractor needs.
The result was improved cash flow management and meaningful cost savings across the project.
