The short answer

What is subdivision finance?

Subdivision finance is a short-term loan that funds the cost of dividing land into separate lots. Quickfundz provides land subdivision loans on first mortgage, from $200,000 to $5 million, up to 70% of the property's value, for 3 to 24 months, repaid from the sale of lots or a refinance.

Subdividing land takes money before it makes any: the site itself, the approvals, the civil works and the cost of registering new titles. A subdivision loan covers those costs and is repaid once the lots can be sold.

Because the money comes in at the end, many subdividers choose to capitalise the interest, so there are no monthly payments while the work is under way.

What it is used for

  • Settling on land to subdivide
  • Subdivision costs and civil works
  • Holding costs until titles are registered
  • Carrying the project through to the sale of lots

    Questions

    Subdivision finance: what borrowers ask.

    What is a land subdivision loan?

    It is a short-term loan that pays for buying and dividing land into separate lots, secured by a mortgage over the land. It is usually repaid from the sale of the new lots or by refinancing.

    Do I have to make monthly payments during a subdivision?

    Not if you choose to capitalise the interest. With fully capitalised interest there are no monthly payments, and the loan is repaid at the end of the term.

    How much can I borrow with subdivision finance?

    Quickfundz lends from $200,000 to $5 million, up to 70% of the value of the security property. Every loan is secured by a first registered mortgage.

    What interest rate applies to subdivision finance?

    Rates range from 9% to 15% a year. Your rate is set when we assess the deal and is confirmed in writing in your letter of offer. You can pay the interest monthly or have it fully capitalised.

    How long is the loan term?

    Terms run from 3 to 24 months. The loan is repaid at the end of the term, usually from a sale or a refinance.

    Who can apply for subdivision finance?

    Quickfundz lends to companies for business and commercial investment purposes. We do not lend to individuals for personal, domestic or household purposes. We lend Australia wide.
