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.
Testimonials from our clients.
"I've dealt with a lot of lenders over the years, and this was refreshingly easy. A private mortgage sorted without the usual back-and-forth."

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.

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.

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.
Sydney-based, speak to decision-makers
Not a call centre. Not outsourced. You speak directly with the team that can approve and settle your private mortgage.
