Secured Lending is a private, non-bank lender based in Barangaroo that funds its own loans. We provide property-secured finance from $250,000 for businesses, investors, and developers across Western Sydney, often settled within 24 hours. Western Sydney runs on freight, trade, and construction, where a deadline belongs to the worksite and the loading dock rather than a credit committee. When a bank has said no or cannot move quickly enough, we assess the deal on the value of your security and a clear plan to repay, not a serviceability score.
Our Private Lending Products
•First and second mortgages
•Bridging finance between property settlements
•Caveat loans for fast, short-term funding
•Business-purpose and cash-out loans
•Refinance of expensive short-term debt
•ATO and creditor payout finance
Why Use a Private Lender in Western Sydney
Banks assess income and serviceability, run every file past a credit committee, and often decline good borrowers whose income is lumpy or held through a company or trust. We work the other way. Across Western Sydney, where developers, builders, and self-employed operators are paid on progress claims and contracts rather than an even monthly wage, that model stalls sound deals. We look at the property offered as security and how the loan will be repaid, which lets us commit quickly and fund when it matters.
•Approvals in hours and funding within 24 hours on a clean file
•Assessed on the value of your security and your exit, not a serviceability test
•Complex, self-employed, and non-conforming income welcome
•Company, trust, and SMSF borrowers are no obstacle
•Short-term, interest-only funding available
•Business-purpose and cash-out loans welcome
Who We Help
•Property owners and investors
•Developers and commercial property owners
•Mortgage brokers and finance advisers
•Lawyers and accountants referring clients
•Business owners who need urgent capital
We lend for business purposes only, to companies, not to individuals, and never for personal home loans or consumer credit.
Our Rates, Terms and Lending Criteria
•Loan size: from $250,000, with larger loans assessed case by case
•Term: 1 to 24 months, typically 3 to 6
•Rates: from 9.7% p.a., with every cost set out in the letter of offer
•LVR: up to 70%
•Security: a registered first or second mortgage over property
•Exit strategy: required on every loan, by sale, refinance, or incoming funds
The exit is the single most important factor we assess. A loan is only as sound as the plan to repay it, so we map that first and build the rest of the decision around it. Property held in companies, trusts, or SMSFs is fine, and we take residential, commercial, industrial, and development security.
Private Mortgage Lender in Western Sydney
As a private mortgage lender we write registered first and second mortgages using our own capital, so approvals never wait on an external credit committee. Being a non-bank lender lets us fund purely for business purposes, with loans running from $250,000 and settlement often inside 24 hours. Every mortgage is set against the property itself and a clear plan to repay, not a serviceability score.
A private mortgage lender moves at a pace a bank cannot, because the decision turns on the security and the exit rather than a slow committee and a rigid income test. That suits short-term, interest-only structures and it suits the people who need them across Western Sydney, particularly developers, builders, and SMEs waiting on progress claims or contracts, along with borrowers a bank has already declined. Deals here live and die on the worksite, so a lender that reads the asset instead of the payslip is often the difference between settling and stalling.
Bad Credit Business Loans in Western Sydney
Mortgage arrears escalate quickly, and in Western Sydney we are often refinancing a position before a default notice turns into enforcement. We lend against the equity in the security property, to 70% LVR, and clear the arrears at settlement. The arrears are usually the reason for the loan rather than a reason to decline it.
“Out through Penrith and Liverpool the deals turn on the worksite rather than the wage slip. Wages and materials fall due long before a progress claim is paid, and that gap is a cash flow problem, not a credit problem. Our valuers walk the shed, the yard, or the site themselves, which is usually what tells us the deal is sound.”
From our Barangaroo office we fund clients the length of Western Sydney, from Parramatta and Blacktown through Penrith, Liverpool, and the growth corridor beyond. Wherever your business trades or your security sits across the region, we can move quickly.
Recently Asked Questions
Yes, where the total fits inside 70% of the factory property's value. One loan from us repays the bank at settlement, and the rest is paid to your business to cover wages and materials until the builders pay.
Send us the default notice, the bank's written payout figure, and the amounts and due dates owed by each builder. If either builder has gone into external administration, tell us, because your plan for repaying us cannot rely on that payment.
Yes. The loan is secured by the depot property the business or its owners hold, never by the trucks, and the funds are paid to the business to spend on fuel, wages or repairs.
We agree the repayment plan before settlement, so tell us when the customer payments are due and we set the term to end after them.
It can. On a $3 million purchase we lend up to $2.1 million against the factory, which is 70% of the lower of our valuation and the price. With your $400,000, that leaves about $500,000 plus stamp duty and purchase costs to find, and your home can secure that part as additional security, provided total borrowing stays within 70% of the combined value of both properties.
The business is the borrower and your home is security for its loan. Send us the contract, the home address and any mortgage statement.
No. A tax debt listing on its own is not a reason we decline. We assess the factory property, the equity inside our 70% loan-to-value ratio and how the loan will be repaid.
In Bankstown, a $1.3 million second mortgage over two industrial properties paid out an ATO debt so the owner's planned bank refinance could go ahead.
Yes, if the business is registered for goods and services tax and buys the warehouse for use in its business. The business can usually claim the tax back as a credit on its next BAS, and we set a short term with time to spare, because the ATO may review a large refund before paying it.
The loan can be secured by the warehouse or another property you own. Your accountant should confirm the tax treatment of the purchase and when to lodge.
Yes, if the loan is at least $250,000, our minimum. A strata industrial unit is real property, and with no loan on it we take a first mortgage. If our valuer puts the unit at $800,000, the most we lend is $560,000, which is 70% of that value.
If you need more, both units can secure the one loan. First mortgage rates start from 9.7% p.a.
About $900,000. A second mortgage is limited to 70% of the value across both loans: 70% of $4 million is $2.8 million, and less the $1.9 million owed to the bank that leaves $900,000.
Your bank loan stays in place on its current terms. Second mortgage rates start from 11.95% p.a., and the figure depends on our own valuation of the warehouse.
Our valuer starts again. We have our own in-house valuation team and do not rely on the bank's report, so the factory is valued by inspection or by desktop valuation for our loan.
The most we lend is 70% of our valuation. Send us the address, the amount you need and the bank's report if you have it, and we aim to give you an indicative offer the same day.
It does not change the limit. Our maximum is 70% of our valuation whether the property is residential, commercial or industrial, so a shop with apartments above it is valued as one property and the same 70% applies.
Our valuer values the whole building, the shop and the apartments together. Tell us about any existing mortgage so we can work out whether the loan is a first or a second mortgage.
Yes. Both can secure the one loan, as long as total borrowing stays within 70% of their combined value after any existing mortgages. Vacant land is real property, and our valuer values each property separately.
The company is the borrower and receives the funds. You provide the block as security for the company's loan, so have your solicitor explain what that means for you before you sign.
It can. A liquidator can recover a payment as an unfair preference if the company was insolvent when it paid, which is why the accountant should confirm the company is solvent before it borrows to pay the ATO.
If the accountant confirms the company can pay its debts, the loan funds are paid to the company, which then pays the ATO in full.
Yes. For Western Sydney employers we provide property-secured funding to meet super within the 7 business day payday deadline, or to pay out a Superannuation Guarantee Charge that has already been assessed, before it attracts a director penalty notice. This is our payday super finance.
Rates start from 9.7% p.a. and are priced to the term, the security, and the risk of the individual deal. Every cost, including any establishment fee, is set out in the letter of offer before you commit, with nothing hidden.
No. We lend for business purposes only, to companies, not to individuals, and never for personal home loans or consumer credit. The loan must be for a genuine business purpose and secured by property.
Often, yes. A good share of our Western Sydney borrowers come to us after a bank has gone quiet or said no, usually because their income is lumpy, self-employed, or held through a company or trust. We assess the property you can offer as security and your plan to repay, not a serviceability score, and on a clean file we can fund within 24 hours.
Yes. Developers and builders make up a large part of our Western Sydney book. We regularly fund site purchases, works already under way, and shortfalls at settlement, and we can cover wages and materials while a progress claim is outstanding. We take the property as security rather than testing your income line by line.
Yes. We take vacant land and part-built development sites across the Western Sydney growth corridor as security, assessed on their own merits. Our own valuers inspect and price the site against current evidence, which is what lets us move quickly. Loans start from $250,000, with larger loans assessed case by case, over 1 to 24 months.
We lend up to 70% of value on most residential and commercial security across Western Sydney. Loans start from $250,000, with larger loans assessed case by case, over 1 to 24 months. Vacant land, development sites, and second mortgages are assessed on their own merits.
Yes. We are a private mortgage lender writing first and second registered mortgages over property across Western Sydney, for business purposes only. Loans start from $250,000 and can settle within 24 hours on a clean file.
Yes. Western Sydney is one part of a wider book. Our main Sydney guide covers the whole metro, our Private Lender Australia overview maps our national reach, and we keep a dedicated Parramatta guide for the regional centre.
Yes, and the earlier the better. Refinancing while the arrears are still with your existing lender is far cheaper and faster than doing it after a default notice or a possession application. We clear the arrears at settlement out of the facility. The test remains the equity in the Western Sydney property inside 70% LVR, and a documented exit.
Yes. We have pages for land purchases, development sites and land waiting on a rezoning or DA, each explaining how we value the site.
