Is Assurity Capital a bank or a private lender?

Can I obtain a private loan after being declined by a bank?

A bank decline does not necessarily prevent a private loan application. Assurity Capital considers the overall scenario, but approval remains subject to acceptable security, an eligible loan purpose, suitable leverage, lending criteria and a credible exit strategy.

Can self-employed borrowers apply for private finance in NSW?

Eligible self-employed borrowers may apply for property-secured business, investment or commercial finance. The information required depends on the proposed transaction, security property and repayment strategy.

Can I get a second mortgage without refinancing my existing loan?

A second mortgage may allow an eligible borrower to retain an existing first mortgage while accessing additional property equity. Approval depends on the first mortgage, available equity, combined loan-to-value ratio, loan purpose, lender requirements and exit strategy.

What properties can secure a private loan in NSW?

Depending on the transaction and lending criteria, security may include residential investment property, commercial property, industrial property, development sites, vacant land, mixed-use property and completed development stock. Regional and specialised properties are assessed individually.

What is an exit strategy for a private loan?

An exit strategy explains how a short-term private loan will be repaid by its maturity date. Common exit strategies include selling property, refinancing to another lender, selling another asset, receiving development proceeds or completing a longer-term finance arrangement.

What interest rates do private lenders in NSW charge?

Private lending rates and fees vary according to the loan amount, security property, loan-to-value ratio, mortgage position, purpose, term, risk and exit strategy. Borrowers should consider the interest rate, lender fees, valuation costs, legal expenses and total repayment amount.

What Is a Private Lender in NSW?

A private lender in NSW provides finance outside the conventional major-bank lending process. Private loans are commonly secured by property and structured for a defined business, investment or commercial purpose.

Rather than assessing a transaction solely through automated credit scoring or standard home-loan policies, a private mortgage lender can consider the complete scenario. This commonly includes:

The location and value of the NSW security property
The existing debt secured against that property
The requested loan amount and loan-to-value ratio
The commercial purpose of the funding
The borrower’s experience and circumstances
The proposed interest-servicing arrangement
A realistic and documented exit strategy

Private lending may be appropriate when the transaction is commercially viable but does not fit a bank’s lending policy, documentation requirements or available timeframe.

Why Borrowers Use Private Lenders in NSW

NSW borrowers commonly approach private lenders when timing, complexity or conventional bank policy creates a funding gap.

Private lending may be considered when a borrower needs to:

Complete an urgent property settlement
Purchase an investment or commercial property
Refinance a maturing private loan
Discharge a caveat or short-term finance facility
Access property equity for business working capital
Pay eligible business-related ATO or creditor obligations
Complete a delayed construction project
Fund development costs or residual property stock
Bridge the period between a property purchase and sale
Consolidate eligible business or investment-related debts
Act on a time-sensitive commercial opportunity

A bank decline does not automatically mean a private loan will be approved. Assurity Capital still assesses the quality of the security, loan purpose, total leverage, risks and exit strategy.

Private Lenders Versus Banks in NSW

Banks generally offer longer-term lending at lower rates when an applicant satisfies their income, credit, documentation and serviceability requirements. Private lenders generally provide shorter-term, property-secured finance for eligible transactions requiring greater flexibility or a different assessment approach.

Bank Finance May Be More Suitable When

The borrower meets standard bank servicing requirements
Complete financial information is readily available
The transaction is not time-sensitive
A long-term loan is required
The application fits standard lending policy

Private Lending May Be More Suitable When

Settlement or refinancing is time-sensitive
The borrower has a non-standard income position
A property or transaction falls outside bank policy
The borrower requires a short-term funding bridge
Existing property equity supports the request
There is a clear and credible repayment or refinance strategy

Private finance is typically more expensive than conventional bank finance. Borrowers should consider the interest rate, lender fees, valuation expenses, legal costs, default provisions and total repayment amount before proceeding.

First Mortgage Private Loans NSW

A first mortgage loan gives the lender the first-ranking registered mortgage over the security property. Because the first mortgage lender holds priority over later mortgage interests, first mortgage finance may accommodate a broader range of eligible loan amounts and purposes.

Assurity Capital may consider first mortgage private loans in NSW for:

Commercial and investment property purchases
Refinancing an existing bank or private lender
Business cash flow and expansion
Development or construction-related requirements
Urgent settlements
Commercial debt consolidation
Short-term investment funding
Releasing equity for an eligible business purpose

Residential property used as security must support a genuine business, investment or commercial loan purpose. Assurity Capital does not provide consumer-purpose owner-occupied home loans.

Second Mortgage Loans NSW

A second mortgage is registered behind an existing first mortgage. It may allow an eligible borrower to access additional property equity without replacing the entire first mortgage facility.

Second mortgage loans in NSW may be used for:

Business working capital
Stock, equipment or supplier payments
Business expansion
Investment expenses
Eligible ATO or creditor obligations
Property improvements connected with an investment or business
Urgent commercial liabilities
Short-term debt consolidation
Completing a time-sensitive commercial transaction

The assessment considers the balance and conditions of the first mortgage, the combined loan-to-value ratio, available equity, loan purpose and exit strategy. The consent or involvement of the first mortgage lender may also be required.

Bridging Loans NSW

A bridging loan is short-term finance used to cover a temporary gap between two financial events.

NSW bridging finance can potentially assist when:

A new property must settle before another property is sold
Sale proceeds have been delayed
A bank refinance will not be completed before settlement
A development requires capital before longer-term funding becomes available
A commercial opportunity has a short completion deadline
An existing loan reaches maturity before its replacement is ready

A strong bridging-loan application identifies the specific funding gap, the expected bridge period and the event that will repay the loan. The exit may involve a property sale, completed refinance, development proceeds or another identifiable source.

Secured Business Loans NSW

A secured business loan uses eligible property as security for a genuine commercial funding requirement.

Assurity Capital may consider property-secured business finance in NSW for:

Working capital
Business expansion
Stock and inventory
Equipment acquisition
Supplier and creditor payments
Commercial property purchases
Marketing or project expenditure
Business-related tax obligations
Short-term cash-flow gaps
Time-sensitive commercial opportunities

Applications may be considered from companies, trusts, property investors, developers, self-employed borrowers and other eligible commercial applicants.

A property-secured loan should not be treated as a substitute for a sustainable business plan. Borrowers need to understand the finance costs and how the facility will ultimately be repaid.

Property Development and Construction Finance NSW

Property developers can encounter funding gaps because of cost overruns, presales, valuation changes, incomplete works or a timing mismatch between construction expenditure and project receipts.

Private property development finance may be considered for:

Acquiring a development site
Refinancing existing development debt
Completing partially constructed projects
Funding eligible construction costs
Paying consultants or contractors
Preparing completed stock for sale
Bridging delays in project receipts
Releasing equity from completed developments

Assessment may include the current property value, completed value, remaining construction costs, planning and building approvals, quantity surveyor information, presales, development experience and the proposed exit.

Residual Stock Loans NSW

Residual stock finance allows an eligible developer or investor to borrow against completed but unsold property stock.

A residual stock loan may assist with:

Refinancing a construction facility
Releasing capital from completed apartments or townhouses
Paying project expenses
Supporting cash flow while remaining stock is sold
Funding another eligible development or commercial opportunity
Avoiding pressure to sell completed property immediately

Assurity Capital assesses the completed properties, current debt, marketability, requested leverage and expected sales or refinance strategy.

Refinancing Private Lenders and Caveat Loans in NSW

Private loans, second mortgages and caveat-related facilities usually have fixed maturity dates. Leaving a refinance until immediately before expiry can reduce the available options and increase the risk of default costs or enforcement action.

Assurity Capital may consider refinancing:

An expiring private mortgage
A maturing second mortgage
Eligible caveat-related finance
A short-term commercial facility
Development or construction debt
A facility that cannot be refinanced by a bank within the required timeframe

The assessment will generally consider the current payout figure, registered interests, property value, arrears or default position, loan purpose and the proposed exit from the replacement facility.

Borrowers should obtain independent legal and financial advice before entering a replacement private loan.

Private Loans for ATO and Creditor Payments

Property-secured funding may be considered for genuine business or investment-related ATO liabilities, supplier accounts and other commercial creditors.

This type of finance may provide time to:

Address an urgent commercial liability
Stabilise business cash flow
Complete an asset sale
Finalise a bank refinance
Collect outstanding invoices
Implement a longer-term restructuring strategy

Approval is not automatic. The liability, security, overall financial position and exit strategy must support the proposed loan.

NSW Properties That May Be Considered as Security

Depending on the transaction, location and lending criteria, security may include:

Residential investment property
Commercial offices and retail premises
Industrial property and warehouses
Development sites
Vacant land
Completed residential stock
Mixed-use property
Rural or specialised assets assessed individually

Property type, condition, location and marketability can affect the acceptable loan amount and loan-to-value ratio. A valuation may be required.

How Much Can I Borrow From a Private Lender in NSW?

Assurity Capital considers private loans from $50,000 to $5 million and above.

The amount available is not determined by property value alone. It depends on:

The property’s assessed value and marketability
Existing mortgages, caveats and other secured debt
The required mortgage position
The total loan-to-value ratio
The loan purpose
The proposed term
Interest and fee arrangements
The borrower’s exit strategy
The overall risks of the transaction

An indicative assessment can usually begin once Assurity Capital receives the requested amount, loan purpose, security address, estimated property value, current debt and proposed exit.

What Is LVR in Private Lending?

Loan-to-value ratio, or LVR, compares the total debt secured against a property with the property’s accepted value.

For example, if a property is valued at $1 million and the total secured debt is $600,000, the LVR is 60%.

For a second mortgage, the combined LVR includes the existing first mortgage and the proposed second mortgage. Lower leverage may strengthen an application, but LVR is only one part of the assessment.

The Importance of a Clear Exit Strategy

An exit strategy explains how a short-term private loan will be repaid by its maturity date.

Common private-loan exit strategies include:

Sale of the security property
Refinance to a bank or another lender
Sale of another property or business asset
Settlement of completed development stock
Receipt of documented commercial proceeds
Completion of a longer-term finance arrangement

A statement such as “the market will improve” is not a sufficient exit strategy. The proposed exit should be realistic, measurable and appropriate for the loan term.

How the NSW Private Lending Process Works

1. Submit the Scenario

Provide the loan amount, purpose, security address, estimated value, existing debt, preferred timeframe and proposed exit strategy.

2. Initial Assessment

Assurity Capital reviews the security, leverage, purpose, mortgage position and exit strategy to determine whether the scenario may fit.

3. Indicative Terms

Where the initial assessment is suitable, indicative terms may outline the proposed amount, interest, fees, security, conditions and term.

Indicative terms are not final approval.

4. Due Diligence and Valuation

Supporting documents, title information, valuation evidence and other relevant material are reviewed. Requirements vary according to the transaction.

5. Legal Documentation

Approved loans are documented by the relevant legal representatives. Borrowers should obtain independent legal advice.

6. Settlement

Settlement occurs once all approval conditions, security requirements and legal documentation have been completed.

Timing depends on the complexity of the transaction, the availability of information, valuation requirements and the readiness of all parties. Funding timeframes cannot be guaranteed.

NSW Private Lending Example

Assurity Capital arranged a $305,000 second mortgage secured against property in Woolloomooloo, Sydney.

Loan type: Second mortgage
Purpose: Business cash flow
Combined LVR: 70%
Location: Woolloomooloo, NSW
Outcome: Settlement completed within five business days through the relevant private lending arrangement

This historical example illustrates one type of transaction and does not guarantee that another borrower will receive the same amount, terms or settlement timeframe.

Questions to Ask Before Accepting a Private Loan

Before proceeding, borrowers should understand:

The interest rate and how interest is calculated
Establishment, valuation, legal and discharge costs
The total repayment amount
Whether interest is serviced monthly or capitalised
The loan maturity date
Default interest and enforcement provisions
The property being offered as security
The consequences if the exit strategy is delayed
Whether refinancing or early repayment fees apply

Independent legal, financial and tax advice should be obtained where appropriate.
