Equity Release
Loan

Unlock the equity in your property - without selling, refinancing, or restructuring.

An equity release loan lets developers, investors, and business owners borrow against the available equity in property they already own. There's no need to sell the asset, refinance an existing first mortgage, or restructure the entire debt position. It's a fast, commercial facility for funding the next opportunity, settling a deal, or freeing up working capital.

Equity Release Loans in Australia

Equity release is the process of borrowing against the value already built up in a property - the difference between what the property is worth and what's still owed. Instead of selling the asset to access that capital, an equity release loan converts the equity into cash while you continue to own and use the property.

Where a bank typically requires a full refinance and a fresh serviceability assessment, a non-bank equity release loan can sit alongside an existing first mortgage as a second mortgage - leaving your current loan untouched. This is particularly useful when the existing loan is on attractive terms you don't want to lose, or when timing matters more than rate.

At Commercial Property Funding, equity release is assessed commercially - focused on asset quality and the strength of the deal. There's no rigid credit model and no requirement to provide tax returns or full financial statements.

frequently asked questions

An equity release loan is a property-backed facility that lets you borrow against the equity in a property you already own - without selling the property or refinancing your existing loan. The funds can be used for property investment, development, or business purposes.

No. Equity release can be structured as a second mortgage that sits behind your existing first mortgage, leaving the bank loan untouched. This is particularly useful if you're on a low rate or fixed-term loan you don't want to disturb.

Assessment is asset-led and commercial. We focus on the quality of the property and the structure of the deal - rather than payslips, tax returns, or a rigid credit model.

Up to $7 million, at up to 75% of the value of the property inclusive of any existing first mortgage. The exact amount depends on the property type, location, deal structure, and available equity.

For any legitimate property or business purpose - funding the next development, settling a new acquisition, providing working capital for a business, consolidating debt, or bridging between transactions.

A no-cost, no-obligation Letter of Offer can be issued within 48 hours of a complete submission. Settlement typically follows within seven days of executed loan documents.

No monthly debt servicing is required. Interest can be capitalised into the facility and repaid at the end of the term, when the loan is repaid in full from the agreed exit.
