At LightSpeed, we simplify the obtaining construction finance by offering you flexible terms and among the lowest construction loan rates Australia has to offer, providing you with huge interest cost savings and reduced timelines of development projects.

The solution to high LVR, high construction loan deposit, and high construction finance rates

Lightspeed construction finance offers easy funding at manageable LVR and a liberal construction loan deposit requirement. We’re also among the mortgage management companies that offer construction loan rates as low as 6%.

Since construction finance amounts tend to be larger, a single percentage point can make plenty of difference. For instance, if you use a construction loan calculator to see how much you’ll pay in interest when construction rates are 6% vs 8%, you’ll see a significant difference.

You can also pay off a loan quicker for a given amount of monthly payment if your interest rate is low. For instance, trying adding the numbers into a construction loan repayment calculator to see how long it will take you to pay off a loan at 6% vs 8%.

If you need an expert by your side as you make a decision about your construction loan, we can help.
