The local advantage
Why brokers place their Brisbane deals here.
- Every product is open in Brisbane
- Brisbane is metro on the schedule, so all five products can be written against security here, including the two written only in capital cities and select metro.
- Private credit, not a placement
- We lend from committed institutional capital as a private mortgage lender secured by registered mortgage, and there is no panel to shop a Brisbane deal around. The person who prices it is the one who takes it to settlement. That is the difference between a private lender in Brisbane and a broker with a rate card.
- One of three cities above $3M on Fast
- Alphacon Fast is written above $3M in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane only. A large South East Queensland deal on self-declared income is not pushed down to a smaller facility.
- The Coasts are metro, not regional
- The Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast are classed metro on the schedule, so a Southport, Burleigh, Maroochydore or Noosa security keeps the full product set and the highest LVR.
- Regional Queensland is a product, not a decline
- Toowoomba, Cairns, Townsville, Rockhampton and Mackay are non-metro but Category 1 markets, and they price on Alphacon Bridge, Reach and Second. A postcode changes which product carries the deal, not whether we look at it.

Where we lend
Across South East Queensland.
Commercial, industrial, retail, residential investment and land.
We take security across Greater Brisbane: the CBD, Fortitude Valley and South Brisbane, the inner suburbs and the bayside, and out through the growth corridors of Springfield, Ipswich and North Lakes.
The Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast are classed metro on the schedule rather than regional, so a Southport, Burleigh, Maroochydore or Noosa security keeps every product and the highest LVR. That is the single most common thing brokers get wrong about the Queensland footprint.
Beyond the south-east, Toowoomba, Cairns, Townsville, Rockhampton and Mackay are non-metro but sit in the top category on the schedule, so they price on the products written Australia-wide - Alphacon Bridge, Reach and Second. Where a facility is secured against two or three Queensland properties we set a partial discharge figure per title.

A development or fit-out drawn against progress across the south-east corridor.

A bank that has reduced its commercial appetite mid-facility.
Refinance & debt rescue - 04
Equity in a Queensland asset funding the next acquisition.

Brisbane, answered
What brokers ask before the first Brisbane deal.
What is the fastest private lender in Brisbane?
We will not tell you we are, because every lender says it. What we will commit to is a first response within four business hours and an indicative position the same business day on a complete submission. Settlement is then driven by the valuation and the legals, and our fastest is five days. Ask any Brisbane lender for those three numbers in writing and compare them.
Are you a private mortgage lender in Brisbane, or a broker?
A lender. We lend from committed institutional capital, secured by registered mortgage over Australian property, and there is no panel to shop your deal around.
Are you a private credit lender or a private mortgage lender?
Both describe the same business from different angles. Private credit is the asset class - non-bank capital lent directly to a borrower rather than raised through a bank deposit book. A private mortgage is the security we take for it: a registered first or second mortgage over Australian property. So a private credit lender in Brisbane that secures its loans by mortgage is a private mortgage lender in Brisbane, and we are both. What we are not is a broker, a fund manager raising money deal by deal, or a syndicator.
Can I get a second mortgage from a private lender in Brisbane?
Yes, on Alphacon Second, from $100,000 to $5,000,000 behind an existing first mortgage. Combined LVR inside 70%, and the first mortgagee's consent is the long pole - name the incumbent at submission so consent runs in parallel with credit. The second mortgage page sets out what credit looks at in that position, in Brisbane or anywhere else.
Do you lend on the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast?
Yes, and on the same terms as Brisbane. Both are classed metro on our postcode schedule, so a Southport, Surfers Paradise, Burleigh, Maroochydore or Noosa security opens every product, including the two written only in capital cities and select metro.
What LVR can I get on a Brisbane property?
To 75% on Alphacon Bridge, Fast and Line, 70% on Reach, and 70% combined where Alphacon Second sits behind an existing first. The LVR calculator checks a scenario against each product's published maximum, including the combined position.
Do you check income or credit?
Not as a servicing test. Alphacon Fast, Line, Reach and Second do not score credit at all - the assessment sits on the security and the exit. Alphacon Bridge is the exception and the trade is deliberate: it wants an accountant's letter or prepaid interest and credit above 600, in exchange for carrying no risk fee.
What does a private lender in Brisbane charge?
Rates start at 8.50% p.a. and are priced per deal on the security, the peak LVR and the strength of the exit. On top sit an establishment fee, a monthly loan management fee, the valuation, and a risk fee on every product except Alphacon Bridge. The bridging cost estimator itemises the total over the term, and the product guide carries the full fee schedule.
Do you lend in regional Queensland?
Yes. Toowoomba, Cairns, Townsville, Rockhampton and Mackay are non-metro on the schedule but sit in the top category, and they price on the products written Australia-wide: Alphacon Bridge, Reach and Second. The postcode checker gives the classification for a given address.
