First mortgages

First mortgage business loans

Short-term business funding secured by a registered first mortgage over property you own — whether it’s unencumbered or you’re paying out an existing lender. Loans from $20,000 up to $20,000,000.

Funding in first position

When a property is owned outright, or the existing loan needs to be paid out, a first mortgage gives you the most borrowing power from your equity. It’s a fast alternative when a bank can’t move at the speed the deal needs.

  • Registered first mortgage over Australian property
  • Residential, commercial and other property considered
  • Pay out an expiring or unwanted loan quickly
  • Interest capitalised or paid monthly
  • Repay early and unused capitalised interest is credited back

Common uses

Refinancing out of an expired or pressured loan. Releasing equity from a property you own outright. Funding a purchase, an ATO debt or working capital while a longer-term solution is arranged.

Built around the exit

Tell us how the loan will be repaid — a sale, a bank refinance or business cash flow — and the loan is structured around it.

Common questions

How much can I borrow?

Loans range from $20,000 up to $20,000,000, depending on the property, the equity and the plan to repay.

What is the loan for?

First mortgage loans are for business purposes only.
