What a Second Mortgage Does for You
A second mortgage allows you to unlock trapped equity in a property you already own while keeping your primary loan in place. It’s useful when you:
- Need liquidity for an urgent settlement, tax commitments, or upcoming renovations.
- Want to seize time-sensitive opportunities such as stock purchases or equipment upgrades.
- Prefer not to refinance your entire facility due to break costs, timing, or bank turnaround times.
- Intend to fund value-add works that increase the property’s earning capacity or valuation.
Key Benefits of Using a Second Mortgage for Equity Release
- Keep your bank relationship intact: Maintain your first mortgage and avoid full refinance complexity.
- Speed: We prioritise fast decisions, with same day settlement possible in the right circumstances and funding within 24 hours after documents are executed.
- Flexibility: Use funds for acquisitions, working capital, bridging loans, or project costs tied to your business plan.
- Purpose-built terms: Shorter terms reduce total interest, and repayments can be structured around your exit.
- Control: You decide when and how you repay—via sale, refinance, receivables, or dividend flows—without resetting long-term banking lines.
