Sixteen live applications, 123 pending units and a single 103-home Wallington outline carry most of the borough's estimated £48.7m pipeline GDV.
Croydon's Q2 2026 pipeline is heavily weighted toward small conversions and HMO change-of-use schemes, with one 103-unit Wallington outline accounting for the bulk of borough GDV. For developers, that mix shapes lender appetite, ticket sizing and exit assumptions across the CR0, CR2, CR7 and CR8 postcodes.

We arrange senior debt, mezzanine and equity for development schemes from £500k to £50m. No upfront fees, indicative terms in 48 hours.
Methodology: Pending GDV is estimated by multiplying declared unit counts by local sales medians for the corresponding property type. Approval rate is the share of decided applications (last 12 months) granted permission. Sold-price changes are year-on-year comparisons of the median sale price.
