Why a Private Mortgage

When the bank says no, a private mortgage gets it done.

Secured Lending team

Secured by property, assessed on the asset

Your loan is backed by a registered first or second mortgage over commercial or investment property. We lend against the security and the exit, so a tight credit file or a slow bank does not stop a strong deal.

Built for borrowers a bank cannot move fast enough for

A purchase closing this week, a refinance the bank keeps stalling, a settlement gap that cannot slip. A private mortgage is designed for exactly these time-critical situations.

Our funds, our decision

We are a non-bank direct private lender. No broker chain, no credit committee. The person assessing your deal is the person authorising the funds, which is why we can move faster than any bank or managed fund.

First and second mortgages, clear exits

We write first and second mortgages from $250k to $10M, with terms structured around a credible exit. Most deals are short to medium term while a longer-term solution is arranged.

What We Fund

Private mortgage scenarios we fund every week.

If your situation isn't listed, call us. We've probably seen something similar. All loans are for business and commercial purposes only, secured against real property.

Commercial property purchase

Buying commercial property on a timeline the bank cannot meet. A private mortgage settles fast so you do not lose the deal.

Investment property finance

First or second mortgage finance for an investment property purchase, refinance, or equity release, assessed on the asset rather than serviceability.

Declined or delayed by the bank

The bank said no, or is taking too long. We assess on property security and a clear exit, and can fund where a bank will not move.

Refinance or cash-out

Refinance an existing facility or release equity from property for a business purpose, without waiting weeks for a bank approval.

Bridging and settlement gaps

Funds needed between settlements or while longer-term finance is arranged. A private mortgage bridges the gap with minimal delay.

Second mortgage behind a bank

Access equity with a registered second mortgage behind your existing first, clearing a tax debt or funding the next move.

Our Process

Enquire today. Funded this week.

1. Tell us about the property

Submit the 60-second enquiry with the property and the deal. We'll review your scenario and come back with an indicative offer, usually the same day.

2. Same-day assessment

No committees, no weeks of waiting. Because we use our own funds and value in-house, you get a clear answer within hours, not a maybe. If we can't help, we can point you to another solution.

3. Funds in your account

Our Difference

Why businesses prefer Secured Lending.

First and second mortgages, $250k to $10M

We write private mortgages other lenders consider too urgent, too complex, or outside bank policy, secured against commercial and investment property across Australia.

Funded in as little as 24 hours

Same-day assessment and settlement on clean deals. When a purchase, refinance, or settlement cannot wait on a bank, a private mortgage is the fastest path to funds.

We fund with our own money

No broker chain, no credit committee in another city. The person assessing your deal is the one authorising the funds, which is why we move quickly.

In-house property valuation team

Valuations done in hours, not weeks. We do not queue behind other lenders or wait on external valuers.

Bank decline is not a problem

We assess on the property security and the exit, not trading history or credit scores. A bank decline or a tight timeline is exactly what we are built for.

A private mortgage is a loan secured by a registered first or second mortgage over property, funded by a private lender rather than a bank. Because the loan is assessed on the property security and a clear exit strategy, a private mortgage can be approved and settled far faster than a bank facility, often within 24 hours.

Business owners, company and trust borrowers, investors, and developers who need property-backed finance quickly. It suits borrowers buying or refinancing commercial or investment property, releasing equity for a business purpose, or who have been declined or delayed by a bank.

We write private mortgages from $250k to $10M, typically up to around 70% of security value depending on the property type, location, and exit strategy. First and second mortgages are both available where there is sufficient equity.

Clean deals can be assessed the same day and funded within 24 hours. The timeline depends on how quickly valuation and security details are confirmed, but we move faster than a bank because we lend our own funds and assess in-house.

No. A private mortgage is assessed primarily on the property security and the exit strategy, not on tax lodgements, trading history, or credit scores. This is why private mortgages suit borrowers a bank cannot move quickly enough to help.

Yes. We can register a second mortgage behind an existing first mortgage, provided the combined LVR sits within our range and there is a credible exit. This lets you access equity without refinancing your existing facility.

A lending specialist, not a call centre, will call you within business hours to discuss the property and the deal. We treat these enquiries as a priority and aim to give you an indicative offer as soon as possible.

Loans offered by Secured Lending are strictly for business and commercial purposes only and are not available for owner-occupied or personal home loans. Applications are subject to credit assessment, property valuation, and satisfactory security. Terms, fees and rates vary by deal and are subject to security type, LVR and exit strategy.
