Commercial Practice Group

Financing

Whether you are lending for commercial or residential purposes, we can assist you with various aspects of private mortgage and finance transactions. In particular, our lawyers are trained to advise and recommend preferred arrangements for security documentation, including using company charges, director's guarantees and other security instruments.

We do not advise either commercial or residential borrowers, nor do we provide independent legal advice, or certificates of independent advice, to borrowers or guarantors. However, to assist our valued clients, we can provide a referral for this service.

If you are a lender, then we can assist you in the following areas:

• Commercial Loan Facilities
• Domestic Mortgages (Residential)
• Due Diligence - Finance
• Additional Securities
• Institutional Services

Back to TopCommercial Loan Facilities

Commercial Financing facilities cover a broad range of lending situations. The most important aspect is to ensure that your loan "investment" is fully protected. We can tailor security documentation to suit your requirements and provide you with certainty and peace of mind.

Back to TopDomestic Mortgages (Residential)

Whether lending for family or other domestic purposes, we can assist you to protect your loan funds with proper security documentation and flexible arrangements for registration of mortgage interests.

Back to TopDue Diligence - Finance

We conduct a full range of due diligence searches and inquiries to properly investigate borrower positions. We can tailor a due diligence package to suit your lending requirements in all situations. However, we are not valuers, accountants or loan assessors, so we are happy to work with your other advisers to ensure that you have the information you need to know about your borrower.

Back to TopAdditional Securities

Our view is that your assets and investments should be as fully protected as possible. Our lawyers are trained to review your current positions and advise on any necessary variations. We can assist you with any additional security instruments that you may require.

Back to TopInstitutional Lending Services

For lending institutions of all sizes, we can assist you with all transactional mortgage work and systematised settlement processes for both domestic and commercial lending facilities. We can work with you to streamline your processes and procedures to ensure your customers receive efficient and prompt personal service.
