Manchester Development Zones
Development finance across 13 regeneration hotspots in Greater Manchester
Manchester Development Finance arranges property development funding across all ten Greater Manchester local authority areas: Manchester, Salford, Stockport, Tameside, Oldham, Rochdale, Bury, Bolton, Wigan, and Trafford. Whether you're developing in the heart of the city centre or delivering schemes in the wider conurbation, our team has the local knowledge and lender relationships to secure competitive development finance for your project.
Greater Manchester is the UK's largest regional development market, with an active pipeline spanning tens of thousands of new homes and millions of square feet of commercial space. The GM Combined Authority's Places for Everyone spatial framework sets the strategic context, while individual councils drive forward their own regeneration priorities. Each area presents distinct planning requirements, market dynamics, and lender appetites that require specialist local expertise to navigate.

Development Finance Across the Full Greater Manchester Footprint
Beyond our 13 focus zones, we regularly arrange development finance for schemes across the wider Greater Manchester conurbation. Bolton's town centre masterplan is driving new residential opportunities, while Rochdale's riverside regeneration and Oldham's Creating a Better Place strategy present compelling development prospects. Tameside's Ashton-under-Lyne town centre, Bury's Interchange scheme, Wigan's town centre, and Trafford's Civic Quarter are all benefiting from targeted local authority investment that supports private sector development.
Each of these areas operates under its own local planning authority, with distinct policies, housing targets, and strategic priorities. Our knowledge of the planning landscape across all ten Greater Manchester councils means we can advise on how local context affects lender appetite and funding terms. Whether you need conversion finance, new build loans, or specialist mezzanine funding, local expertise makes the difference.
