What is a Second Mortgage?
A second mortgage is an additional loan secured against the usable equity in your existing property. You keep your first mortgage in place; we take a second ranking position and structure funds for targeted capital deployment.
Why It Works
- Speed: Same day settlement, funding within 24 hours where documentation and valuation line up.
- Preserve primary facilities: No need to refinance your bank.
- Flexibility: Draw capital for purchases, deposits, renovations, marketing, equipment, or working capital.
- Cost control: Pay interest only for the time you use the funds; exit when cash recycles or a refinance is ready.
- Certainty: We issue clear terms up front so you can commit to an urgent settlement with confidence.
Common Use Cases
- Bridging loans between buy and sell dates when a window is tight.
- Wholesale stock or materials buys at a discount that won’t wait.
- Pre‑settlement top‑ups to complete a property or business purchase.
- Fit‑outs, refurbishments, or DA‑driven works that unlock value before a longer-term refinance.
- Short cash flow gaps in solid businesses where receivables are lumpy.
If the need is urgent or even an emergency, a second mortgage lets you act now and tidy the structure later through bank refinance or sale proceeds.
How We Think About Pricing, Amounts, and Terms
Second mortgages are purpose-built secured business loans. Facility sizes are tailored to equity and exit strategy; with us, you can borrow up to $10 million depending on security and serviceability. For straightforward scenarios, pricing can start at an interest rate of 11.95%, with interest typically capitalised to reduce cash drag. Terms are commonly three to twelve months. We focus on the exit: sale, refinance, or receivables. Our job is to review the numbers, structure pragmatically, coordinate valuation and legal, and confirm a timetable you can rely on.
Our Process is Built for Pace

- Valuation instructed immediately; legals run in parallel.
