Explore the service ↗MORE BUYERS THAN HOMES
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.

Bank of England high loan-to-income limit
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.
Mortgage reach illustrative at 4.5× income; varies by lender and circumstances. First-home prices: Halifax First-Time Buyer Review, 2024.
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
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
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
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
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
Targeted finance offers instead of headline discounts, so your prices hold and your development-finance costs fall as homes sell faster.
04 · MOMENTUM
Exclusive, dynamic offers on selected plots or a limited period, to move specific stock and build sales momentum.
05 · ECONOMICS
Your capital is invested in the finance, not spent on discounts, so it returns over time instead of being written off.
06 · CONTROL
A streamlined sales system you control, with Consumer Duty at its heart, not a fragmented stack of lenders and brokers.
FINANCE WITH A COMMERCIAL PURPOSE
Create targeted financing offers for any plots you choose, a single home or a limited period, within your programme’s agreed arrangements.

CUSTOMER FINANCING IS A SUPERPOWER
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.
