MORE BUYERS THAN HOMES

There are more buyers than homes.
Most of them can’t buy one.

3.6 million renting households say they want to buy, but a mortgage caps most of them below today’s prices, so they can’t. If your homes aren’t selling, that isn’t weak demand. It’s buyers the market can’t reach.

The maths doesn’t meet

A household on £35,000, around the middle for renters, can borrow roughly £160,000. That is a long way from what a first home actually costs today.

Lenuity bridges that gap. We build finance around the specific barrier each buyer faces and deploy it on demand, for the plots and buyers you choose, so more of them can complete on your site.

A PROVEN MODEL, NEW TO THE UK

The biggest housebuilders in America all run their own finance arm.

Car makers proved it first: finance your own customers and you sell more, faster, and the finance itself becomes a major income. America’s largest housebuilders built the same thing. UK builders are the ones still handing their buyers, and the advantage with them, to lenders, where you are not the customer, your business objectives aren’t relevant, and the lender has its own priorities.

Each runs its own in-house finance arm

The same model car makers have used for decades: Ford Credit, Toyota Financial Services, VW Financial Services.

Lenuity gives you the same advantage, run for you as a service, where you are the customer and the finance follows your priorities. The model the giants built in-house, without you having to build a bank.

WHAT YOUR OWN FINANCE ARM DOES FOR YOU

Six ways finance becomes your advantage.

The biggest win is reaching buyers others can’t. But it isn’t the only one: your own finance arm works right across your sales operation.

01 · REACH

Reach more buyers

Finance matched to the ideal buyer of every home, with offers only you have, so more of the people who want to buy can.

02 · CERTAINTY

Speed and certainty

The buyer, home and offer are known before the home goes on sale, so completion is designed for around 14 days, with fewer fall-throughs.

03 · PRICE

Full-price sales

Targeted finance offers instead of headline discounts, so your prices hold and your development-finance costs fall as homes sell faster.

04 · MOMENTUM

A marketing lever

Exclusive, dynamic offers on selected plots or a limited period, to move specific stock and build sales momentum.

05 · ECONOMICS

Stronger site economics

Your capital is invested in the finance, not spent on discounts, so it returns over time instead of being written off.

06 · CONTROL

One coordinated service

A streamlined sales system you control, with Consumer Duty at its heart, not a fragmented stack of lenders and brokers.

CUSTOMER FINANCING IS A SUPERPOWER

Make homeownership more accessible
for your customers.

01 / BUY BY PHONE

Buy By Phone.
A game changer for affordability.

Buy By Phone lets your customers buy an initial share, pay rent on the part not yet owned, and choose when to purchase further equity.

Rent does not buy ownership. Rent and other housing obligations still apply.

02 / LET TO SELL

Help investors.
Help first-time buyers.

A route for overseas investors to support first-time buyers through shared ownership—retaining an investment interest with rental income and the potential for capital growth.

Returns and capital growth are not guaranteed. Maintenance responsibilities depend on the agreed legal arrangements.
