However, with the asset value increasing throughout the time of development, perhaps by as much as 10% over a typical two year period, then the financial cushion usually protects the over exuberant developer.<\/p>\n<p>The squeeze on credit and property funding as well as the slower drag of any reduction in asking prices also play their part.\u00c2\u00a0 The supply of suitable buildings is also affected, as the \u00e2\u20ac\u02dceasier\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 conversions have in the main already been developed so the stock of properties available to convert becomes more restricted.<\/p>\n<p>It is also not without foundation that the horror moments from the Grand Designs TV programme and other similar television programmes will put off potential developers.
