    Commercial Property Finance FAQs

    Answers to common questions about commercial property lending, borrowing capacity, deposits, loan structures and the pre-assessment process.

    Does this affect my credit score?

    Our commercial property eligibility check is purely indicative and does not involve any credit enquiries. You can explore your options without impacting your credit file.

    How much can I borrow for a commercial property?

    Borrowing capacity depends on several factors including your income, business financials, the property type and the strength of any tenants.

    Most commercial property loans are assessed based on:

    • Loan-to-value ratio (LVR)

    • Rental income or business income

    • Property location and asset type

     

    As a general guide, lenders typically offer 60%–75% LVR, with higher leverage possible in strong scenarios.

    What deposit do I need for a commercial property?

    Most lenders require a deposit of 25%–40% of the property value, plus costs such as stamp duty and fees.

    Lower deposits may be possible where:

    • The deal is supported by strong financials

    • Additional security is provided

    • The asset and tenant profile are high quality

     

    Can I get a commercial property loan with low-doc or alt-doc?

    Yes — many lenders offer low-doc and alt-doc commercial property loans.

    These are commonly used by:

    • Self-employed borrowers

    • Business owners without full financials

    • Clients with complex income structures

     

    Assessment may be based on BAS, bank statements or accountant declarations instead of full tax returns.

    What types of assets can be financed?

    Vehicles, trucks, earthmoving equipment, medical equipment, IT infrastructure, manufacturing machinery and more.

    Can I buy commercial property through my SMSF?

    Yes — commercial property can be purchased through a Self-Managed Super Fund (SMSF) using a limited recourse borrowing arrangement (LRBA).

    Common scenarios include:

    • Buying business premises inside your super

    • Leasing the property back to your business

    • Building long-term wealth within your SMSF

     

    SMSF lending has specific rules and structures, which we guide you through.


     

    What interest rates apply to commercial property loans?

    Interest rates vary depending on:

    • Loan size and LVR

    • Property type

    • Tenant strength

    • Borrower profile

     

    Rates are typically higher than residential lending and may be structured as:

    • Variable or fixed rates

    • Principal & interest or interest-only

     

    We compare multiple lenders to secure competitive terms for your scenario.

    How long does commercial property finance take to get approved?

    Indicative approvals can often be provided within 24–48 hours.

    Full approval and settlement typically take:

    2 to 6 weeks, depending on:

    • Valuation turnaround times

    • Documentation complexity

    • Lender requirements

     

    Can I refinance an existing commercial property loan?

    Yes — refinancing is common and can be used to:

    • Reduce your interest rate

    • Improve loan structure

    • Release equity

    • Consolidate multiple facilities

     

    We assess your current loan and restructure it to better align with your strategy.

    Can I use equity in another property as a deposit?

    Yes — equity from existing residential or commercial property can often be used in place of a cash deposit.

    This allows you to:

    • Acquire property with minimal cash contribution

    • Leverage your existing assets

    • Accelerate portfolio growth

     

    What types of commercial properties can be financed?

    We arrange finance for a wide range of commercial assets, including:

    • Offices and strata suites

    • Warehouses and industrial properties

    • Retail shops and showrooms

    • Medical and specialist facilities

    • Mixed-use developments

     

    Each property type is assessed differently by lenders.
