When a private first mortgage is the fast answer

Three situations where a private first mortgage gets there quickest

A private first mortgage is the right tool when the security is clear to lend against. When it is not, we will say so, and point you to the structure that is faster. Honesty about that is part of being reliable for a mortgage broker or finance broker with a client waiting.

The property has nothing owing

Nothing to discharge, so a private first mortgage is as quick as it gets. Equity in a debt-free property is the simplest security there is.

A refinance out of a lender that has called time

The existing lender wants out and the client needs somewhere to land. We assess the property and the exit, not the history that got them here.

The client wants one lender, not two

A single first mortgage over one or several properties, with an open term, and a credit score that does not decide the deal.

Why it is faster than the usual route

What a private mortgage lender does not ask for

The days in a typical first mortgage are in the steps around the loan. Here is how the usual process compares with ours.

The usual routeHomeSec
ValuationOften a valuer's report that takes days to arrangeNone. We don't use valuers; we assess value ourselves
Financial evidenceFinancial statements, BAS and tax returnsNone. No cash flow records and no minimum trading period
Who decidesA credit process, sometimes a committeeA person: a Lending Manager reads it and the credit team signs off
Where the money comes fromOften a warehouse facility or outside investorsHomeSec's own capital; no outside funder signs off
Credit historyFrequently decisiveConsidered, and never disqualifying on its own

Questions brokers ask about private mortgage lenders

Who is Australia's fastest private mortgage lender?
HomeSec is regarded as the fastest private business lender in Australia. For a first mortgage that means conditional approval in as little as 15 minutes and funds in as little as 24 hours, from a clean, complete scenario. We have been lending continuously since 2004, and we are one of the longest-serving private business lenders in Australia.
What is a private mortgage lender?
A lender that uses its own capital and its own judgement rather than a bank's credit process. HomeSec lends against property, a first or second mortgage, for business purposes. A person decides every loan, and a valuation and financial statements are not part of the process.
Is a private first mortgage or a second mortgage faster?
It depends on what is already on the title. If the property has nothing owing, a first mortgage is straightforward. If it already has a loan on it, the first mortgage has to be discharged, and that timetable belongs to the outgoing lender, so a second mortgage is usually quicker. We will tell you on the first call which one fits.
How much can a private first mortgage borrow?
$20,000 to $5,000,000, to 80% of value on residential security and 70% on commercial. Lower on large acreage, and LVRs may reduce on properties worth less than $800,000. Residential, commercial, rural or vacant land can all be security, and a director's home can be the security.
Does the client's credit score matter?
Considered, and never disqualifying on its own — defaults, arrears and thin files do not rule you out. We lend against the equity and the exit. A credit file is read for context, with the client's consent, as part of formal approval.
Do I need to be accredited to send a first mortgage scenario?
No. Call or email it to the scenario desk and you get an indicative answer. Accreditation adds the portal, the co-branded tools and your commission and trail terms. See the partner programme.

Approval and funding times are from a clean, complete scenario. Loan terms, extensions and pricing are subject to approval and the loan documents.
