What is a Residual Stock Finance?
Dealing with unsold properties, referred to as residual stock, is one of the risks a property developer has to face sometimes.
Some property developers decide to keep some of their properties and sell them later when the market is better. This way, they can maximise the return on investment and aren't forced to sell in a hurry.
The good news is, there's a way to handle this issue – it's called residual stock finance.
A residual stock loan is a short-term loan tied to the homes that haven't been sold yet in a development project. This kind of funding eases the burden on the developer, providing them with the time to find buyers who are willing to pay reasonable prices for unsold homes.

Who is a residual stock loan for?
Residual stock funding caters to property developers who finish a project but still have unsold dwellings. Having unsold dwellings can create a significant financial gap even though they can generate some income by renting out the unsold homes, the profit is considerably less compared to selling them.
Developers may end up with unsold stock due to a market downturn, making their selling prices seem high. Alternatively, they might intentionally hold back some properties to prevent oversupply in the market.
Pros and Cons of Residual Stock Finance
How does a residual stock loan work?
A residual stock loan is a short-term agreement that is tied to stocks/properties that have not been sold yet.
This financial solution usually involves refinancing, transitioning from the original property development finance, which may have a higher interest rate, to the new residual stock finance with a lower rate.
It's important to note that terms can vary significantly among lenders in the world of property development finance. Typically, residual stock finance loans have durations ranging from six to 36 months, with loan-to-value ratios (LVR) falling between 40% and 70%.
What properties are eligible for Residual Stock Finance?
Residual Stock Finance is open to both commercial and residential properties. The loan can be utilised for refinancing an existing development facility loan or for accessing cash.

Overall, It's important to note that the financing for a larger number of units may result in a lower Loan to Value Ratio (LVR) qualification. This is because funding numerous units presents a higher exposure, which is a risk that many lenders are hesitant to undertake.
