For Perth clients who need finance outside the traditional banking system, private funding can be a powerful and practical solution. At Luxe Finance Group, we work with a broad panel of private lenders, non-bank lenders, and specialist lenders across Australia to help clients access the funding they need, when they need it.
What Is Private Funding?
Private funding refers to loans arranged through private money lenders, high net worth lenders, family offices, and second tier lenders rather than through a mainstream bank. These lenders operate with greater flexibility, which means they can often consider applications that fall outside standard bank criteria. Whether you are dealing with an unusual property type, a complex income structure, or a time-sensitive opportunity, private lending can provide alternative options that a traditional lender simply cannot.
Private loans are commonly used for short term loan needs, including private bridging finance, private development finance, private commercial finance, and investment finance. They can also be used when urgent finance is needed and a fast approval is critical to securing an opportunity or meeting a deadline.
Who Uses Private Funding?
Private funding is used by a wide range of clients, including property investors, developers, business owners, and individuals who cannot get bank approval through conventional channels. You might be self-employed with non-standard income, holding a property with alternative security, or simply working to a timeline that mainstream lenders cannot accommodate. In these situations, accessing private funding options from lenders across Australia through Luxe Finance Group can make all the difference.
Some clients also turn to private lending when they need a private mortgage to bridge a gap between selling one property and purchasing another. Others use it to fund a development project while longer-term finance is being arranged. The key advantage is flexibility, both in terms of loan structure and the speed at which funding can be accessed.
Understanding Private Loan Costs and Terms
It is important to understand that private lending operates differently from bank lending. The private loan interest rate is typically higher than a standard variable interest rate from a major bank, reflecting the increased flexibility and risk that private lenders take on. When calculating private loan costs, you need to consider the interest rate, private loan fees, and the overall private funding term.
The loan to value ratio (LVR) is another key consideration. Private lenders may accommodate a higher LVR than banks in some circumstances, though this will influence the private lending rates on offer. The private funding amount available will depend on the security provided, the loan purpose, and the lender's assessment of the overall deal.
A clear private exit strategy is also essential. Private loans are generally short term in nature, so lenders will want to understand how the loan will be repaid, whether through the sale of a property, refinancing to a mainstream lender, or another clearly defined exit plan. Luxe Finance Group works with clients to ensure their exit plan is realistic and well-structured before any private loan application is submitted.
