Second Mortgage Cheat Sheet For Brokers

September 22, 2025

Why Second Mortgages?

A second mortgage lets your client unlock equity in their property without refinancing their first loan. It’s fast, flexible, and designed for short-term needs like:

  • Bridging finance (waiting on a property sale or refinance)
  • Business expansion or working capital
  • Covering urgent expenses (e.g. tax bills, supplier payments)
  • Property development or renovation projects
  • Debt consolidation

✅ Keep the first mortgage in place
✅ Fast approval & settlement
✅ Purpose-built short-term solution

Key Features

  • Loan amount: Up to $2,000,000
  • Security: Second mortgage only
  • Maximum LVR: 65%
  • Fast settlement: Minimal paperwork, quick turnaround
  • Short-term focus: Exit strategy required (refinance or sale)

💡 Tip for brokers: The shorter the loan term, the lower the overall cost. Always ensure the client’s exit strategy is realistic and achievable.

  • Business owners bridging a short-term cash flow gap
  • Borrowers needing fast funds for settlement or refinance
  • Clients covering urgent, time-sensitive costs
  • Brokers working on scenarios where banks are too slow

Broker Notes

  • Exit strategy is critical – not a long-term loan
  • Best fit: Clients who know where their repayment will come from (refinance, property sale, settlement proceeds)
  • Turnaround: Designed for speed – approvals and settlements can move quickly
