Acquiring Funding
There are many different ways to fund your project – and not one size fits all. Most community led housing schemes will need to use a blend of finance mechanisms from start up, through design and finally to the build stage and live stage. This can be a complex area and we would advise speaking to a professional from the outset, in order to obtain the correct finance for your project. It is also vital to choose a governance structure that allows the correct type of finance to be secured (for example, in order to do a community share offer, your group must be registered as a Community Benefit Society).
Please talk to us early on in your project in order for us to refer you to a professional advisor for a consultation and provide information on the most up to date funding initiatives.
