Who borrows $750,000?

A loan of this size tends to suit established businesses funding a meaningful step rather than a small top-up. Think buying out a partner, acquiring a competitor, fitting out a new site, purchasing plant and equipment, or consolidating several smaller facilities into one cleaner arrangement. Because $750,000 sits above the usual unsecured ceiling of around $500,000, most lenders will look for some form of security and a track record of consistent revenue. That said, structures vary widely, and a strong trading business with good margins can still find flexible options. Comparing lenders early helps you understand which path fits your balance sheet.

Secured or unsecured at this level

At $750,000, the split between secured and unsecured lending matters. Secured facilities, backed by property, equipment or other assets, generally unlock larger amounts, longer terms and lower indicative pricing because the lender carries less risk. Unsecured or lightly secured options may still be possible for businesses with strong turnover, but expect tighter limits and pricing that reflects the added risk. Some lenders blend approaches, taking a general security interest over business assets rather than real property. The right mix depends on what you own, how quickly you need funds, and how much flexibility you want. Simon can map these trade-offs against your situation.

What lenders want to see

For a facility this size, lenders typically review your last one to two years of financials, recent business bank statements, an aged debtors and creditors list, and details of any assets offered as security. They are looking for consistent revenue, healthy cash flow after existing commitments, and a clear purpose for the funds. Time in business, industry, ATO position and director credit history all feed into the assessment. Preparing these documents in advance speeds things up considerably. Because criteria differ from lender to lender, an application that suits one may not suit another, which is exactly where comparing the market saves time and knock-backs.

Repayment shape and speed

Repayments on a $750,000 loan are usually structured as regular principal-and-interest instalments over a term that commonly runs one to five years, though secured facilities can stretch longer. Interest-only periods or seasonal structures may be available for eligible applicants where cash flow is uneven. Pricing remains indicative and subject to lender assessment, with stronger, well-secured profiles generally priced lower and higher-risk or shorter facilities higher. Timing varies too. Straightforward, well-documented applications can move to approval quickly, sometimes within a few business days, while more complex or property-secured deals take longer as valuations and legals are completed.

If a $750,000 facility is on your radar, the simplest next step is a conversation about structure before you formally apply.
