Short Term Loans

At Secured Lending, we help business owners access fast, practical funding solutions tailored to short-term needs. Our short-term loans are typically 1 to 24 months in duration and are required to be secured against property.

What Are Short Term Loans?

Short term loans are designed to provide businesses with the funds they need to cover short-term financial needs — working capital, unexpected expenses, or time-sensitive investment opportunities. They are typically repaid within 1 to 24 months.

Why Secured Lending?

Our short-term loans are designed for situations where funding is not immediately available from traditional sources such as banks. We pride ourselves on our ability to assess your financial needs in a timely manner and can fund your loan within 24 hours.

  • Finance within 24 hours of approval
  • Loans from $250,000 to $10 million
  • Rates from 9.7% p.a.
  • Terms from 1 to 24 months
  • Secured against residential or commercial property
  • No long-term lock-ins or rigid exit penalties

Common Uses for Short Term Finance

  • Bridging cash flow gaps between invoices or settlement dates
  • Working capital to fund operations, payroll, or supplier payments
  • Urgent tax debt or ATO liabilities requiring immediate resolution
  • Property and real estate — development site acquisitions, auction funding, deposits
  • Business acquisitions, mergers, partner buyouts, or franchise purchases
  • Equipment purchase, machinery finance, or commercial vehicle funding
  • Refinancing expiring loans or exiting restrictive facilities

Frequently Asked Questions

We can fund your loan within 24 hours of approval in many cases. Our in-house property valuation team assesses your security simultaneously with your application, which is how we move faster than traditional lenders.

Our short-term loans are secured against Australian property — residential, commercial, or industrial. The quality and value of your security property is the primary factor in our assessment.

Yes. We assess applications primarily on the security property and your exit strategy — not your credit score. Borrowers with previous defaults, ATO debts, or less-than-perfect credit history regularly qualify for our short-term loans.

We lend from $250,000 to $10 million for short-term business loans. For larger refinance facilities, loan amounts can range up to $45 million.

We lend to a wide range of businesses across Australia — from sole traders and SMEs to property developers, trusts, and companies. If your business has a clear short-term funding need and suitable property security, we can help.
