What is private lending?

Private lending is provided by private companies and institutions, usually funded by investors and secured by a mortgage. When a bank or non-bank lender can’t help because of restrictive credit policies, private lending becomes an option, because it is based mainly on the quality of the security provided.

Private loans are designed for short-term needs: settling a purchase quickly, bridging until a sale, funding a business opportunity or clearing a pressing debt, while you arrange longer-term finance.

Costs to be aware of

Private loans cost more than bank loans, reflecting their speed and flexibility. As well as the interest rate, expect establishment and brokerage fees, plus valuation, legal and government fees. We set out every cost upfront and plan your exit, whether that’s a sale or a refinance to a bank or non-bank lender, before you commit.

Common questions

Do I pay for your service?

Yes. There is an engagement fee paid when you select our services, and a success fee paid on successful completion of your loan funding. We explain all fees upfront before you proceed.

How fast can a private loan settle?

Often within days of a valuation and signed documents, which is much faster than most bank loans.

Can private lending be used for personal purposes?

No. Loans must be used for business, investment, construction or similar purposes.

What is my exit strategy?

Because private loans are short term, lenders want a clear exit, usually the sale of a property or refinance to a bank or non-bank lender. We help you plan it upfront.
