It is always a great day when we hear that a borrower has achieved success with the help of Secured Lending.
Secured Lending was approached in May 2020 to assist with funding the purchase of a development site on the New South Wales South Coast. The borrower was an experienced developer who already held approved plans and permits to build a 34-unit residential complex.
Secured Lending took a first mortgage over the site and provided $2.8 million for the anticipated 15-month construction and sale period.
The loan was structured on the understanding that construction finance would later be sourced through a first-tier lender. Once that construction funding was obtained, we transitioned our security to a registered second mortgage over the site and an additional property in the Shire, allowing the project to be completed.
Today the borrower is settling on the sale of the completed development — and we are proud to have helped another Australian business achieve success.
