Our areas of expertise

Development Finance

Build on our unrivalled connections.

Development finance is the backbone of any successful development project. Whether you're breaking ground on your first build or managing a multi-stage development, accessing the right funding at the right time is critical. Traditional lenders can be rigid, and delays in drawdowns or approval processes can put your timelines and profits at risk. That’s where Lateral Partners steps in. We tailor construction funding solutions that match the pace and scale of your project, helping you stay on schedule, unlock capital as needed, and keep your project moving forward smoothly from slab to sell.

With relationships with all major banks as well as a further 140+ non-bank financiers across New Zealand we are able to tailor a financial solution that suits every client whether it is acquisition, consolidation, seismic upgrades, refits or bridging finance we can help.

The team at Lateral Partners is truly switched on. They quickly analysed our development and secured approval for funding within a short timeframe, with excellent terms. I highly recommend them to other developers!
