How It Works

How It Works

A straightforward process from enquiry to funding

builderloans.com.au helps Australian builders, trades and construction businesses navigate the front end of the short-term business funding process.


We receive your enquiry, help you understand what information is required and facilitate the application with an independent private lender.


The lender independently assesses the application, determines whether it wishes to provide funding and, if so, sets the proposed amount, security, interest rate, fees and conditions.



If the lender wishes to proceed, builderloans.com.au provides the lender-approved Letter of Offer to you and remains your point of contact through that stage of the process. Formal loan and security documentation is then prepared by the lender’s lawyers before settlement.

Complete the Application

If you wish to proceed, builderloans.com.au will provide the application information required and help you through the process before the completed application is submitted to the lender.

Step 3

Lender Assessment

The lender independently assesses the application, available security and supporting information and conducts its own due diligence before deciding whether it wishes to proceed.

Step 4

Letter of Offer

If the lender wishes to proceed, you’ll receive a Letter of Offer outlining the proposed amount, rate, fees, security and key conditions.

Step 5

Formal Documentation & Verification

Once the offer is accepted, the lender instructs its lawyers to prepare the formal loan and security documents. Required verification is completed before settlement.

Step 6

Settlement & Funds Release

Once the legal documentation, verification and other settlement requirements have been satisfied, settlement is arranged and the funds are released.

Security & Exit

Security and Exit Strategy

Short-term business funding is secured by acceptable real property. Depending on the transaction, security may include residential, commercial or industrial property or land owned by the borrower or guarantor.


Funding may be secured by a first or second mortgage, subject to the lender’s assessment and approval.


A clear exit strategy is also generally required. This may include refinancing, the sale of property or another identifiable business or project-related source of repayment.



The lender considers the proposed security, exit strategy and overall circumstances of the transaction when deciding whether it wishes to provide funding.
