🚀 Incredible insights from the Partners in Property Community event on Commercial Conversions at the weekend! 🔑🏢 Although I was running the deal desk for Roma Finance I made 27 pages of notes for myself 🤣 Hosted by the brilliant Lorcan Donaldson, his key message for aspiring developers was all about mastering "vision engineering". 👀🛠️ When eyeing up commercial conversions, look beyond the obvious: 🪟 Look at the windows and the bricks in between - is there an obvious place to put internal stud walls 🧱 🔄 Use floor plans like a drone view for layout decisions 💡 Prioritize natural light for living areas and bedrooms - kitchens and bathrooms can go in darker areas 🚪 💸 Keep communal spaces "short" to save on the upkeep costs 💡 ⏩ Speed things up by using Permitted Development (PD) instead of full planning 🔄 It's all about efficiency and maximizing space! 💼🙌 If you're looking to get into commercial conversions but don't know where to start with regards funding please contact me as I'm happy to explain the process and how Roma Finance bridging and development finance can help you 🤝 #CommercialConversions #VisionEngineering #PropertyDevelopment #PartnersInProperty #PropertyTips #PermittedDevelopment #RomaFinance #LoveToLend #ProfessionalPartners
