Our Story

Camden Development Finance was established as part of the Construction Capital network to provide dedicated development finance brokerage services to property developers operating in the London Borough of Camden. We recognised that Camden's unique property market — from the world-class regeneration of Kings Cross to the premium residential streets of Hampstead — required specialist local knowledge combined with institutional-grade finance capabilities.

The service is led by Matt Lenzie, Founder & Principal Broker. Matt's background includes commercial banking roles with Lloyds Bank and Bank of Scotland and partnership in a corporate finance business. He has raised more than £300 million of capital for UK property professionals.

We work with over 100 development finance lenders, from high-street banks and specialist development lenders to private credit funds and institutional investors. This breadth of panel means we can source funding for projects that others can't — from straightforward residential schemes to complex mixed-use developments with challenging planning histories.

Camden Development Finance is not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. We arrange business-purpose property finance only and do not offer regulated mortgage contracts or regulated financial advice. Enquiries that may require an FCA-authorised firm are not handled through this service.
