The borrowers, experienced in property development, needed a finance solution that went beyond what traditional lenders could offer. The goal was to refinance an existing mortgage to release critical equity from a valuable residential asset. These funds were specifically earmarked to cover Development Application (DA) costs. Finalising the DA was the key to maximising the property's sale value, a crucial uplift in return on investment.
Despite their strong property background, the clients faced hurdles securing finance from major banks, primarily due to factors related to age and income structure.
PMA was able to provide the client with a first mortgage to refinance the clients’ current debts and also release equity for the soft costs of obtaining a DA.
Amount: $400,000 (First Mortgage)
Property Value: $1,050,000
LVR: 38.10%
Term: 12 months prepaid plus 3 monthly extensions
Broker Commission: $4,400.00
*with no clawback
The borrowers’ clear and concise repayment plan was to sell the property once the DA was finalised and the potential for capital gain was fully realised.
