$2.9M No-Valuation Equity Release Unlocks Business Capital
When a borrower owns property outright, the challenge isn't always security—it's accessing equity quickly.
Assetline structured a $2.9 million private lending solution secured against an unencumbered investment property, allowing the borrower to release equity without requiring a valuation and access capital to fund business growth.
The Scenario
The borrower owned an unencumbered investment property in metropolitan NSW and required fast access to equity.
The funds were needed to provide working capital for an existing business, with the remaining balance to support the establishment of a new business venture.
Although the borrower had significant property equity, traditional lending pathways would have delayed access to funds due to valuation requirements and standard credit processes.
The borrower required a faster, property-backed funding solution.
Why Traditional Lending Wasn't the Right Fit
For borrowers with substantial property equity, the biggest obstacle isn't always borrowing capacity—it's time.
Traditional lending often requires valuations, lengthy approval processes and documentation that can delay access to capital.
Where funding is required quickly, those delays can prevent borrowers from acting on business opportunities or executing their plans when timing matters most.
The Assetline Solution
Assetline structured a $2.9 million private lending facility secured against the borrower's unencumbered investment property.
The facility included:
$2.9 million equity release
No valuation required under Assetline's No Val product
60% LVR
18-month loan term
Fast execution
Funding designed to provide rapid access to equity while preserving flexibility
By removing the need for a traditional valuation, Assetline helped the borrower access capital significantly faster.
"Property equity is only valuable if borrowers can access it when they need it. In the right circumstances, removing unnecessary delays can make all the difference."
