Observations from the valuation report & other remarks
> This is a proposed leisure village and will be the second by this borrower. The site currently consists of approximately 18.5 acres of land, including an 8-acre main lake and a 1.25-acre fishing lake, together with a 3 bedroom detached stone house.
> Full planning application was granted in October 2015 for the following development:
· 19 x 2 and 3 bedroom lakeside timber lodges
· 12 x 2 and 3 bedroom timber woodland lodges
· 10 timber camping pods
· Conversion of laundry/amenity building to form a 1 bedroom cottage
· Conversion of a former store to form a 2 bedroom holiday cottage
· Conversion of site manager’s house and café to form a 450m2 restaurant and public house with manager’s accommodation above
· 1 car park for 100 spaces
· Managed wetland
· 52 week trading permission
> The valuation report states that "The business concept is considered to be strong", although they do point out (in the SWOT) that "Other lodge developments in the area offer competition"
> The site inspection was carried out on 23 October 2015; it turns out that the valuer carried out an inspection for a previous client, and it seems they didn't feel it necessary to carry out a fresh site inspection. A lot can happen in 7 months...
> The valuation report believes that a marketing period of circa 9-12 months would be required to achieve a sale at the Market Value of £1,700,000 (65% LTV). Annoyingly (once again) there is no 90 or 180-day market valuation.
