Assurity Capital provided a $575,000 first mortgage private loan to refinance existing private debt secured against a residential property in Thomastown, Melbourne’s north. The transaction was structured at a 64.97% loan-to-value ratio (LVR).


This case study illustrates a property-secured private loan refinance, with the replacement facility structured around the borrower’s funding requirements and available property equity.


Transaction overview

  • Lender: Assurity Capital

  • Loan amount: $575,000

  • Loan structure: First mortgage private loan

  • Security location: Thomastown, Melbourne, Victoria

  • Security type: Residential property

  • Purpose: Refinancing existing private debt

  • Loan-to-value ratio: 64.97%

  • Outcome: Existing private debt refinanced through a replacement first mortgage facility


The borrower’s refinancing requirement

The borrower wanted to replace an existing private lending facility with a loan offering more manageable terms. Their residential property in Thomastown provided the security for the proposed refinance.


For this transaction, the funding requirement was to refinance existing debt rather than purchase another property. The borrower’s objectives included finding a more stable funding arrangement and competitive pricing.


These were the borrower’s objectives; the case study does not provide an interest-rate comparison or quantify any savings.


Assurity Capital’s first mortgage solution

Assurity Capital provided a $575,000 first mortgage facility at 64.97% LVR, enabling the existing private debt to be refinanced.


A first mortgage describes the ranking of the lender’s mortgage security. The LVR expresses the loan amount relative to the property value used for the lending assessment.


The 64.97% LVR relates to this particular transaction. It is not a standard lending limit or an indication that another application would receive the same terms.


Refinancing a private loan in Melbourne

A private loan refinance replaces an existing facility with new borrowing. Property owners may seek refinancing when a loan approaches maturity, their funding requirements change or they want to review the terms of an existing private facility.


For an eligible business or commercial borrowing requirement, a non-bank lending assessment may provide another pathway to consider.


The proposed refinance still needs acceptable security, appropriate documentation and a credible repayment strategy. Available equity alone does not establish eligibility.


When reviewing a replacement facility, consider:

  • The existing lender’s payout figure and discharge costs

  • The new loan’s interest, establishment fees and legal expenses

  • The net funding available after deductions

  • The repayment obligations and maturity date

  • The evidence supporting the proposed exit


A lower headline interest rate does not necessarily mean a lower total borrowing cost.
