Commercial Loans Melbourne — Finance for Business Property

From office space to industrial units, Finseek navigates the complexities of commercial property lending in Melbourne — including specialist lenders for situations the major banks won't touch.

Commercial property loans in Australia typically require a minimum 20–30% deposit and are assessed differently to residential loans. Lenders consider the property type, lease arrangements, borrower entity, and income. A mortgage broker with commercial experience can source options from both major banks and specialist lenders.

Commercial Property Finance for Melbourne Business Owners

Commercial lending is more complex than residential. Security types, lease structures, entity selection, and lender appetite all play a role. We have the experience to navigate these challenges and find the right solution from our panel of lenders.

When Major Banks Say No

We've settled commercial deals that the major banks rejected — by sourcing specialist lenders who understand non-standard property types and borrower situations. Our panel includes lenders who accept a wider range of commercial security than the big four.
