What a Second Mortgage Does in a Timing Mismatch
A second mortgage sits behind your first mortgage on the same property. It gives you short-term capital to meet an immediate need, then you clear it when proceeds land — from a sale, refinance, receivables, or a planned liquidity event. You keep your existing bank facility in place, you avoid resetting long-term terms, and you gain targeted capital to cover the gap.
Why Consider a Second Mortgage for a Timing Gap
- Speed and certainty: Purpose-built for fast decisions and fast funding, including same day settlement and funding within 24 hours when the file is ready.
- Preserve your primary loan: No need to refinance your first mortgage or disturb a sharp bank rate.
- Fit-for-purpose structure: Tailor the loan term to the expected inflow — weeks or months, not years.
- Cashflow friendly: Interest can be capitalised, so no monthly strain while you complete the transaction.
- Competitive and transparent pricing: Clear costs from day one, including an interest rate of 11.95% in qualifying scenarios.
- Scale when needed: You can borrow up to $10million subject to security and exit strategy.
- Straightforward security: Residential or commercial property as collateral; we don’t accept obscure assets, keeping documentation and assessment focused.
