What Is Private Lending?
Private lending is a form of non-bank finance assessed primarily on:
-
The value of the property used as security
-
The loan-to-value ratio (LVR)
-
A clear and realistic exit strategy
Unlike traditional banks, private lenders focus less on income verification and more on asset quality and deal structure. You can learn more about this approach on our Private Lending in Australia page.
