The solution for your short-term business finance needs
At Private Mortgages Australia we do things differently to other lenders. Unlike the banks we don’t focus on credit history or serviceability. And unlike other non-banks we have the funds ready to go as soon as you’re approved – we make the lending decision and don’t have to scramble to get investor funds.
We’ve spent years honing our offer so that we can deliver the best solutions for our borrowers who aren’t able to obtain funding from traditional lenders. We know what we do well and leave the rest for the others.
