What are private lending rates for Sydney?
A private loan is usually more expensive than a bank loan on face value based off interest rates, but it is cheaper in terms of the opportunity cost. As private lenders take on deals and more risk than what a bank can, helping borrowers to get funds when they otherwise couldn't.
Think of the upside of solving your cashflow problems, or being able to take advantage of business opportunities and the profit you’d make if you had access to capital!
Usually first mortgage private loans work on a 4% to 8% margin that is higher than BBSW rate / RBA rate. Depending on the asset class, risk, term of the loan and LVR of the loan.
Usually second mortgage private loans work on a 12% to 20% margin that is higher tha the BBSW rate / RBA rate. Depending on the asset class, risk, term of the loan and LVR of the loan. As second mortgage loans carry more risk, because they rank behind the rights of the first mortgage holder (and suffer to lose more if thing go wrong) they are more expensive.
What this means for borrowers, is that as interest rates go up at a bank level, many private lenders also adjust their own rates to become more competitive with a bank, as the difference between bank rates and private rates gets smaller. The cost of capital usually depends on where capital is sourced from, which is why we source capital from a family office to get you the lowest cost of capital.
