HS2 Contractor Accommodation Finance
Contractor accommodation, serviced apartments and HMO conversions serving one of Europe's largest construction workforces.
HS2 is one of the largest construction programmes in Europe, and its workforce is concentrated exactly where accommodation is tightest: Birmingham, Solihull and the towns along the route corridor. Engineers, trades and management staff on long rotations need somewhere better than a hotel and more flexible than a twelve-month tenancy, which is precisely the gap contractor accommodation fills.
We arrange funding for landlords and operators serving this market across the Midlands: serviced apartment and serviced accommodation mortgages, HMO finance for room-let models aimed at trades, and bridging to acquire and convert stock in Birmingham's inner suburbs, Solihull and the corridor towns.
The Midlands also offers what single-site projects cannot: diversity of demand. HS2 workers today, business and leisure stays alongside, and a deep rental market underneath. Lenders like that story, and we tell it well.
The deals other brokers decline are the ones we complete. Five minutes is enough to know if we can help.

Construction runs for years yet, and Birmingham's rental and serviced accommodation market exists independently of the project. We structure funding so the asset stands on the city's own demand, with HS2 as the accelerant rather than the foundation.
Potentially, subject to planning and building regulations. Conversion deals are funded through refurbishment bridging or development finance with the exit onto SA or residential terms. All lending is subject to credit underwriting.
