Sydney businesses regularly need access to capital faster than any bank can provide — whether to manage a cash flow gap, clear ATO debt, fund an acquisition, or act on a time-sensitive business opportunity. Secured Lending is a Sydney-based private lender headquartered in Barangaroo, providing business loans from $250,000 to $10 million within 24 hours, secured against real property across Greater Sydney.
Why Sydney Businesses Use a Private Lender
Banks apply rigid income and serviceability tests that don't reflect how many Sydney businesses actually operate — particularly SMEs, self-employed operators, and companies with irregular revenue cycles. Secured Lending makes credit decisions based on the quality of the property offered as security and the borrower's exit strategy. The result is faster approvals, fewer conditions, and access to capital when it matters.
- •Business loans from $250k to $10M funded within 24 hours
- •Decisions based on security quality and exit — not solely credit scores or years of financials
- •First and second mortgages accepted across Greater Sydney
- •No bank committee delays — deal with decision-makers directly
- •Suitable when your bank has declined, stalled, or cannot move at your pace
- •Rates from 9.7% p.a. with flexible terms from 1 to 24 months
- •Funds can be used for any legitimate business purpose
